Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) chief Mayawati on Wednesday belie all the speculation on joining alliance for the upcoming 2024 Lok Sabha elections and said that her party will fight the polls single-handedly.

Taking it to official social media handle in a string of tweets, Mayawati mentioned, “NDA and India alliance are mostly parties with anti-poor casteist, communal, pro-Dhanna Seth and capitalist policies against whose policies BSP is continuously struggling and that is why the question of contesting elections in alliance with them does not arise. Hence appeal to the media – no fake news please.”

Adding to this, Mayawati denied all the speculations and urged media not to spread false news, “BSP, like in 2007, will single-handedly contest the upcoming Lok Sabha and four state assembly general elections by uniting crores of neglected/scattered society on the basis of mutual brotherhood rather than the jugaad/manipulation of the opponents. Media should not spread misconceptions again and again.”

Furthermore, coming down heavily on the opposition, she added, “Although everyone here is eager for an alliance with the BSP, but for not doing so, the opposition alleges collusion with the BJP like a cat scratching a pole. If you meet him then you are secular, if you don’t meet him then you are BJP. This is grossly unfair and if grapes are found then it is better, otherwise grapes are sour, just like the saying.”

Adding it further, “Apart from this, after being expelled from BSP, the former Saharanpur MLA is busy in praising the Congress and the top leaders of that party, due to which it is natural for people to question why he left this party first and then went to another party? How can people trust such people?”

It is to be noted here that Assembly Elections for Rajasthan, Telangana, Chhattisgarh and Madhya Pradesh are due this year and BSP, during the last elections on 2018 was able to occupy 6 assembly seats, taking it to 4% of the vote share.
