"Dalits, tribals, backwards, Muslims, other religious minorities and even upper castes, especially Brahmins, are swiftly connecting to BSP after being disheartened by the spiteful and partisan attitude of Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). This has not only made BJP but also Samajwadi Party (SP), Congress and others, furious," said Mayawati.
Earlier on Wednesday, she had accused BJP of implementing "wrong policies" that lead to rampant poverty, inflation and violence in the country.
"Poverty, inflation and violence are rampant in the country due to BJP's wrong policies. Instead of following the 'Rajdharma', BJP is trying to impose the narrow agenda of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) on people," she had stated.
Meanwhile, the political climate in Uttar Pradesh has heated up as the Legislative Assembly elections are due to be held next year in the state.
The BSP is scheduled to launch campaign for the upcoming Uttar Pradesh Assembly elections from September 7. (ANI)
