Mayawati invokes dalits, OBCs, and minorities at Ghaziabad rally

Hindustan Times  

Ghaziabad: The Bahujan Samaj Party chief Mayawati on Sunday chose to speak about the suffering of the backwards, Dalits, Muslims and other religious minorities as she attacked the present Bharatiya Janata Party government and previous Congress governments. Experts observed it was BSP chief’s attempt to garner votes of these classes besides making an endeavour to retain her party’s core vote bank. Much of the revelations have been made through electoral bonds’ report,” she said, and alleged that “like the Congress, the BJP too also politicised the enforcement agencies”. By attacking the BJP, the BSP is trying to garner anti-BJP votes and this would mean loss to the INDIA bloc,” said KK Sharma, associate professor from CCS University, Meerut.
