SP-Cong marriage of convenience to avoid crushing defeat: Mayawati

Published on: 

The ruling SP has “unleashed jungle raj” in Uttar Pradesh and to avoid a “crushing defeat” in this Assembly polls it has formed an “opportunistic” alliance with the Congress, BSP chief Mayawati alleged.

She also vowed to put “goons, mafias and communal elements” behind bars

once her party “comes to power” in the State.

“The Samajwadi Party rule has brought ‘jungle raj’ in the State where might is right. Now, fearing a crushing defeat, the party which had won an absolute majority in the last polls has formed an opportunistic alliance with the Congress,” Mayawati alleged at a rally in Soraon near here.

The BSP supremo claimed, “This alliance has been formed at the behest of the BJP since they all are wary of our party coming to power in the state.”

Claiming that the “family feud in the SP is far from over”, she said, “Mulayam has humiliated his brother Shivpal many times out of his blind weakness for his son Akhilesh and this contradiction bound to play out in the open once the Assembly polls are over”.
