Cautioning the Central government against China, SP supremo Mulayam Singh Yadav today said India's borders will not be safe if the Prime Minister lays his trust on the "deceitful" country.
Addressing a seminar here, Yadav said the boundaries of the country "were not safe" as Prime Minister Narendra Modi was trusting a "deceitful" country like China.
Terming the Central government as "coward", Yadav alleged that while China "has constructed road through mountains in Indian borders", the roads constructed during his tenure as the Defence Minister were in a poor shape and there has been no discussion about it.
It is a "coward" government and "cannot" protect the country, he alleged.
The SP supremo claimed that during his tenure as the Defence Minister, China and Pakistan "could not dare to step into Indian boundaries".
Yadav said there were "several question marks" on the security of the country and boosting the morale of the armed forces was very important.
He said the country is still facing the issues of inflation and corruption.
"Those who came to power by making tall promises have not fulfilled even a single of them," he alleged.
"This is not mine, but the question of the entire country," Mulayan added.
The SP supremo said that after much debate on inflation in Parliament, prices of diesel and petrol have been reduced "a bit", but it has not mitigated the burden of price rise.
He alleged that 27 per cent people of the country do not get full square meal even today.
Mulayam said 65 per cent of the people were dependent on agriculture, but they were being overlooked.
