Hitting out at the SP government in Uttar Pradesh, Union Minister Mahesh Sharma today alleged that law and order in the state was on the verge of collapse and the people would throw out the current dispensation in the upcoming Assembly polls as they are fed up with the situation.
Sharma comments came in the wake of doctors' protest against the alleged murder of a surgeon in a hospital in Allahabad.
"Uttar Pradesh government could not deliver on any front...The law and order system in the state seems to be on the verge of collapse. There is no fear of police. People are fed up and they will throw out the SP government in the coming elections," Sharma, who is the Tourism Minister, told reporters here.
Tension gripped Allahabad after A K Bansal was allegedly sprayed with bullets yesterday while he was inside his chamber at the Jeevan Jyoti multi-specialty hospital in a crowded locality of the city.
Sharma said the BJP will fight election on development plank and not on the Ram temple issue.
"Ram temple is the matter of faith and not the political issue. Faith never changes but issues change from election to election," he said.
Earlier, Mauritius Minister of Social Integration and Economic Empowerment and Arts and Culture Prithvirajsing Roopun called on Sharma here and discussed various issues.
Hailing the Mauritius government for setting up Ramayana museum, Sharma said the Narendra Modi government has also sanctioned an amount of Rs 154 crore for a similar museum in Ayodhya.
