Samajwadi Party chief and MP Akhilesh Yadav slammed the BJP government and PM Narendra Modi over the incident. He said, "The news of robbery of 147 filled cylinders at gunpoint in Varanasi, the prime parliamentary constituency of the country is shocking. The public is mocking the BJP government and asking whether these robbers have said before leaving that the BJP government will fulfill the promise of free cylinders on Holi-Diwali or it will be done in the same way. BJP left the law and order situation in Uttar Pradesh a joke. Seriously reprehensible!"
