As per news report of NDTV, During his rounds of Prayagraj - which was formerly known as Allahabad and whose constituencies still retain the old name - the minister in the Yogi Adityanath government has been seen making tea and frying pakodas at local markets, surrounded by supporters. "Samajwadi Party's people are the ones who are unemployed," Mr Gupta told NDTV at a crowded night rally in Prayagraj. "When the Purvanchal Expressway was being built during their (Samajwadi Party's Akhilesh Yadav) time, it cost ₹ 15,000 crore. But we made a wider, better, longer expressway with a budget that's ₹ 4,500 crore less. Think about it, where would this ₹ 4,500 crore have gone?" Mr Gupta said, while his supporters beat drums and cheered around him.
