New Delhi: Samajwadi Party (SP) chief Akhilesh Yadav on Wednesday expressed his gratitude to the people of Uttar Pradesh and assured that the party will not let them down and “fulfil the trust” they reposed on the party.

In a post on his official X handle, Akhilesh Yadav wrote, “Dear sensible voters of UP… It is also a victory of the trust of the Dalit-Bahujan community, which, along with its backward, minority, tribal, and all the neglected, exploited, and oppressed sections of society, fought shoulder to shoulder to save the Constitution, which gives the right to equality, respect, self-respect, dignified life, and reservation.”

– उस दलित-बहुजन भरोसे की भी जीत है जिसने अपने पिछड़े, अल्पसंख्यक, आदिवासी, आधी आबादी और अगड़ों में पिछड़े सभी उपेक्षित, शोषित, उत्पीड़ित समाज के साथ मिलकर उस संविधान को बचाने के लिए कंधे-से-कंधा मिलाकर… pic.twitter.com/mTmiFAj0K1

The post came after Akhilesh Yadav led the Samajwadi Party to its best-ever show in a general election, clinching 37 seats in Uttar Pradesh to emerge as the third-largest party in the 18th Lok Sabha.

While the SP won 37 seats, the Congress also bagged 6 seats to restrict the BJP to 33 seats in Uttar Pradesh. Asserting that this was a victory for the “protectors of the Constitution”, the SP chief said, “Dear voters, you have proved that no one’s power nor anyone’s deceit is greater than the power of the people. This time, the people have won, not the rulers.”
