Akhilesh Yadav, Samajwadi Party president, has raised serious allegations against the Uttar Pradesh government's handling of a scheme intended to care for destitute cattle.

In a public statement, Yadav accused the ruling BJP of turning the 'Mukhyamantri Sahyogita Yojana' into a conduit for corruption rather than fulfilling its intended purpose.

The former chief minister argues that the initiative is failing to provide adequate food, medical care, and dead animal disposal, transforming cattle shelters into money-siphoning operations instead of solving the stray cattle crisis.
