The state BSP leadership on Monday claimed to have fielded candidate in only one of the four Assembly seats.
BSP state chief Jasvir S Garhi said, “We have fielded only one candidate from Phagwara in accordance with the directions of our chief Mayawati. Baldev Singh, who has filed his papers from Dakha, is not our candidate. We’ve not given him any authority letter. His papers will get rejected. We’ll take action against Baldev for filing papers as BSP candidate without our consent.” — TNS
