BSP Supremo took to twitter and hit out at the Congress, saying that the party was no less than the BJP when it came to the misuse of government machinery. She said the Congress government had threatened the BSP candidate for the Guna Lok Sabha constituency. The candidate, Lokendra Singh Rajput, joined the Congress on April 29. She further said the BSP would contest the election on its symbol and fight to give a reply to this and reconsider the support to the Congress government.

In Uttar Pradesh, she said, Congress leaders were telling the public that the BSP-Samajwadi Party alliance should not win, even if the BJP did. This showed the Congress’s casteist and two-faced nature, she alleged and asked people to be aware. People rightly believed that the alliance was the only one that could defeat the BJP, she added.
