Bahujan Samaj Party supremo Mayawati on Sunday said that there was a need to get rid of the destructive and divisive political game of bulldozers in Uttar Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh, Gujarat and Assam.
She also said that the governments at the Centre and in Delhi should work shunning selfishness. The BSP supremo was holding a meeting with the office bearers of her party unit in Delhi state on Sunday.
Reacting on the bulldozer policy, Mayawati asked why were governments destroying the establishments of the poor? “The intervention of the court in this matter has definitely brought some relief to the people otherwise the people of Delhi would also have been facing the terror of demolition by bulldozer. The country is passing through a period of high inflation, poverty and unemployment and the government is ignoring them,” she added
Mayawati said the constitutional and humanitarian power of the BSP needed proper participation in the politics and power of the country, otherwise the parties supporting the big capitalists and wealthy people would not allow the poor and working people of the country to live in peace.
“That is why BSP is necessary for the happiness, prosperity, peace and progress of the people of Delhi,” she said.
Mayawati said that Delhi was called the mini India as people from different states of the country lived there. “Especially poor migrants from the states of Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Rajasthan and Punjab and other states lead a difficult life here in search of livelihood, towards whom reports of neglect, contempt and atrocities keep coming every day. At the time of COVID-19 and lockdown, the governments here could not even support them, due to which they had to walk hundreds of kilometers to go back to their homes,” she said.
Meanwhile, BSP supremo Mayawati congratulated Jagdeep Dhankhar for his resounding victory in the vice presidential election.
She tweeted on Sunday that the BSP had extended its support to Dhankhar, keeping in mind the larger public interest and its movement. “It is expected that they will definitely try their best to fulfill their constitutional responsibilities,” she said.
