A day after PM Narendra Modi charged the SP with going soft on the Congress as part of a “big game” against the BSP, the two “mahagathbandhan” partners blamed the PM on Sunday for trying to create a rift in the alliance.
BSP supremo Mayawati said the alliance “will continue in the future as well”, while SP chief Akhilesh Yadav said the PM was “misleading” people.
Their rebuttal came against the backdrop of Modi saying at a rally in UP’s Pratapgarh on Saturday that the SP was “going soft” on the Congress, though Mayawati was attacking the grand old party.
He also claimed that the SP had benefitted due to the alliance and “Behenji”had now understood that the Akhilesh Yadav-led party and the Congress were playing a “big game” with her.
