The process of land acquisition was manipulated, they made false allegations about people, to grab their lands and didn't provide proper compensation to it. They have done injustice to businessmen as well. They demolished poor families for building a holy site and I believe this is the main reason for the BJP's defeat in Ayodhya. Also, I want to express my gratefulness towards the public of Ayodhya who voted in favour of the Samajwadi Party."
