Interacting with reporters at the circuit house in Agra, Sisodia said, "This government is failing to provide good education to the children of the poor, employment to the youth, and good amount of crop to farmers."

"Because of unavailability of the beds in hospitals, a pregnant woman had to deliver a baby on road in this state. They feed salt and roti in mid-day meal and act against the reporter if they try to raise the issue."

Sisodia was referring to a journalist booked in 2019 for allegedly doing the "despicable work" of maligning the image of the Uttar Pradesh government by recording a video of school children being served salt and roti in mid-day meal.

The journalist was, however, later given clean chit in the case.

AAP MP leader Sanjay Singh said the 'Tiranga Yatra' would be held in Noida on September 1.

"We will provide 300 units of free electricity in UP and equip government schools of the state with swimming pool, air-conditioned rooms and hockey ground etc if AAP comes to power in the state," he said.

"In every village, there should be facilities like the mohalla clinics of Delhi while women would get free rides in state-run buses," Singh added.
