‘I request BSP to help INDIA bloc save…’: SP chief Akhilesh Yadav | India News

NEW DELHI: Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav on Monday called on the Bahujan Samaj Party to help the INDIA bloc and to save the Constitution.
“I would request the BSP to help the INDIA bloc to save the Constitution… The (INDIA) alliance will surely form the government,” said Akhilesh.
The olive branch comes days after Akhilesh accused BSP of being hand in glove with the BJP.
He not only accused the BSP of helping the BJP but stated that voting for BSP in the Lok Sabha polls will be a waste of one’s vote. “I appeal to the people of our Bahujan Samaj that you have to vote to defeat the BJP and voting in favour of BSP will be as good as wasting your vote,” Akhilesh had said.
“In some places, BSP is indirectly helping BJP while in some constituencies the party has come to its rescue openly. I appeal to the people of our Bahujan Samaj that you have to vote to defeat the BJP and voting in favour of BSP will be as good as wasting your vote,” Akhilesh said at a rally in Kannauj.
Mayawati‘s BSP and Yadav’s SP were at one point two opposite polls of the Uttar Pradesh political landscape.
They, however, struck an alliance back in 1993 for the assembly elections. But in 1995, things became bitter when a group of SP workers allegedly attacked a guesthouse where Mayawati was staying, and later the party walked out of the alliance, bringing down Yadav’s government.
Currently, the SP is enjoying the support of INDIA bloc while Mayawati refused to join the alliance, which has also accused the BSP of being the B-team of the BJP.
