BSP national president Mayawati today claimed that a victory for the BJP in Uttar Pradesh would embolden the Modi government to end quota and asked the Dalits, tribals and Other Backward Classes to “teach the BJP a lesson” as was done by the voters in Bihar.

RSS leader Manmohan Vaidya, at a function in Jaipur on Friday, had said that caste-based quota was not meant to be permanent. Mayawati said it was imperative that the BJP was checked in UP which otherwise may consider bringing in a legislation to tinker with the reservation policy.

She advised the beleaguered Congress to contest on its own rather than depend on the Samajwadi Party which, shr claomed, was hand in glove with the BJP.”  She claimed the recent Yadav family feud had been scripted by party patriarch Mulayam Singh Yadav to cut brother Shivpal Yadav to size, counter  the anti-incumbency mood against son Akhilesh and hand over the party organisation to him.

Claiming that the BSP alone could contain the BJP, Mayawati once again asked the people, especially the Muslims, not to waste their vote by siding with the SP “which was responsible for more than 500 communal incidents”.
