BSP supremo Mayawati on Thursday alleged connivance between the BJP and the SP over VHP’s proposed yatra from Ayodhya, saying the parties wanted to create communal tension in Uttar Pradesh.
“I think the controversy about the VHP yatra is with an understanding between both the parties...the BJP and the SP are behind the controversy over the yatra and both these parties want to create communal tension. They want violence between two communities, Mayawati told reporters outside Parliament. She said both the parties were on a weak footing in the State.
“The SP Government has badly failed on the law and order front. People of the State are very much against the Government because of the deteriorating law and order situation. On the other hand, the BJP’s position is also not good in the State and both the parties are aware of it. lok Sabha elections are round the corner, so in this situation if lS elections are held, the results will not be good for the SP and the BJP,” she said.
