Following the Lok Sabha election results, Bahujan Samaj Party supremo Mayawati expressed disappointment over the lack of support from the Muslim community, saying the Muslims have not understood the mission she has taken to uplift them and the downtrodden members of society.
“The Muslim community is not able to understand BSP properly. We gave them proper representation in the Lok Sabha. But now, the party will give them a chance in the elections only after a lot of thought, to avoid a significant loss like this time,” she said here on Wednesday, a day after the results of the Lok Sabha elections were announced.
Mayawati issued a letter addressing the party’s supporters and the public, acknowledging the intense focus on Uttar Pradesh during these elections.
“This time, the whole country’s eyes were on UP. The result that has come out is in front of the public. We will review the loss in the elections,” she wrote.
The BSP faced a severe setback, failing to secure a single seat in this election. This is a stark contrast to the previous election in which the party had won 10 Lok Sabha seats.
As the BSP prepares for a thorough review of its performance, Mayawati’s remarks highlight the party’s strategy of moving forward and the need to reassess its approach to garnering support from the Muslim community and other voter bases.
