Former deputy chief minister of Bihar Sushil Kumar Modi lashed out at Samajwadi Party President Akhilesh Yadav for slamming the launch of the fifth-generation (5G) telephony services.
“Akhilesh Yadav’s statement is no relation to 5G, at one time RJD chief Lalu Yadav said that what is IT (information technology). “Similarly, Akhilesh Yadav is an educated man, he should welcome 5G,” Sushil Kumar Modi said.
Meanwhile, Sushil Kumar Modi further added, “India is entering a club of few countries in the world in terms of 5G speed network. Yadav should first ask 40-50 crore youth of the country what is the importance of 5G.”
Sushil Kumar Modi further stated, “Does Akhilesh Yadav want to say that by closing 5G, that money (for launching 5G) should be spent on poverty? Today, the poor of the country also have internet connections and the internet is as much as important like roti, kapra, makaan, and fast-speed mobile internet is the need of the hour. That’s why the public is rejecting the leaders like Akhilesh Yadav and their parties.”
Earlier former Uttar Pradesh CM Akhilesh Yadav criticized the 5G telephony services.
Taking to Twitter CM Yadav slammed the BJP party and said that “People are already getting 5G under the BJP rule: G = garibi (poverty), G = ghotala (scam), G = ghapla (swindle), G = ghalmel (adulteration) and G = gorakhdhanda (unethical practices).”
Moreover, while addressing the Indian Mobile Congress (IMC) 2022 conference PM Modi announced the start of operations of 5G services in chosen locations.
However, Prime Minister Narendra Modi launched the fifth-generation (5G) telephony services on 1 October 2022.
