BSP to go it alone in UP 2022, says Mayawati

November 09, 2021 16:54

Ahead of the 2022 Uttar Pradesh polls, Bahujan Samaj Party chief Mayawati on Tuesday said that her party will not enter into an alliance with any political party and will get an absolute majority just like they did in the 2007 assembly elections.

"BSP won't have any "chunavi samjhauta" (poll agreement) with any party. We'll contest on our own. We are entering into an agreement with people of all sections of society to bring them together -this alliance is permanent. Don't intend to enter into an alliance with any party," said Mayawati.

The BSP supremo alleged that Samajwadi Party (SP) and the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) are two sides of the same coin.

"We don't see any difference between SP and BJP. They are two sides of the same coin. They just want to make the polls a Hindu-Muslim matter," she said.

"We are confident that we will get an absolute majority, just like we got in 2007," the former Uttar Pradesh chief minister added. -- ANI
