Bjp Vs Mayawati

The battle for Uttar Pradesh's Dalit votes escalated on Wednesday with BSP Chief Mayawati finally making an appearance and launching her election campaign in Western UP with a public meeting in Agra. She made her first election campaign event speech

Eighteen and counting. Mamata Banerjee, the Chief Minister of Bengal, has received the support of these many leaders, tweeted her top aide Derek O' Brien this morning along with a list that featured Rahul Gandhi, Akhilesh Yadav, Mayawati, Arvind Kejriwal and Tejashwi Yadav.

The BJP today ridiculed Bahujan Samaj Party Chief Mayawati's allegations of EVM tampering and asked her to "gracefully accept the people's mandate".

In 2017, social alliances are changing. It may well be a BSP versus BJP battle, with the SP pushed down the ladder.

There was an opposite and equally impolitic reaction from Mayawati's party to Dayashankar Singh's malevolent remark against her. In Chandigarh, a leader from Mayawati's party offered 50 lakhs "in return for Mr Singh's tongue"; hours later, Mr Singh's misogyny was attributed to "faulty DNA as an illegitimate child" by Usha Chaudhary, a lawmaker in ...
