Lucknow, Sep 6 (PTI) Accusing the Yogi Adityanath government of ignoring the youths' problems, Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav on Sunday demanded a youth charter envisaging the solution to their problems in a time-bound manner.
"The anger among youths against the BJP government in Uttar Pradesh is increasing. Despite opposition from several quarters, examinations are being conducted during the pandemic. In the name of jobs, the youths are being misled, said former chief minister Yadav in a statement.
The SP demands that the BJP government should issue a youth charter to solve the problems in a time-bound manner," he added.
