Samajwadi Party president Akhilesh Yadav compared BJP's washing of the chief minister's residence with Gangajal after his March 2017 departure to BR Ambedkar's 1927 assault at Chavdar lake. Yadav said feudal mindsets persist unchanged. He made these remarks during a PDA community appeal on Ambedkar's birth anniversary, highlighting alleged discrimination against backward castes, Dalits, and minorities.
