Uttar Pradesh: Mayawati advised Akhilesh Yadav to look into his own heart, reminded him of his father’s ‘blessings’
Mayawati has responded to Samajwadi Party President Akhilesh Yadav’s questioning of her credibility. He has advised the SP chief to look inside himself before commenting on BSP. BSP supremo wrote in a post on social media platform Needed’.
Mayawati said that the Samajwadi Party has been tainted in terms of promoting and associating with the BJP. He wrote in his post on X, ‘Who can forget the blessings given by the then SP chief (Mulayam Singh Yadav) to BJP before and after winning the parliamentary elections. And then how can the public forget the meeting of the SP leadership with their leadership when the BJP government is formed. In such a situation, it would be appropriate if SP fights communal forces. Mayawati was referring to late Mulayam Singh Yadav blessing PM Modi for a second term in Parliament.
What did Akhilesh Yadav say about Mayawati?
Actually, Akhilesh Yadav was on Ballia tour yesterday. Here, when the journalists asked him about the inclusion of Mayawati and BSP in the India Block, he asked in a sarcastic tone, ‘After that (2024 Lok Sabha elections), you will give me confidence. It’s a matter of trust. If she comes, then who among you will give assurance?’ According to media reports, in the recently held India Block meeting, Akhilesh Yadav had expressed his disagreement with the inclusion of BSP.
Let us tell you that BSP and SP had contested the 2019 Lok Sabha elections in UP in alliance. The third party in his alliance was RLD. BSP had won 10 seats, while SP had won 5 seats. RLD could not even open an account. Immediately after the elections, BSP supremo Mayawati had announced to break the alliance. After this, BSP had fielded its candidates in the by-elections for Azamgarh and Rampur Lok Sabha seats. From Azamgarh, SP’s Dharmendra Yadav had to face defeat at the hands of BJP’s Dineshlal Yadav alias Nirahua. BJP’s Ghanshyam Lodhi had also won in Rampur.
