The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on Monday launched a scathing attack on Bahujan Samaj Party(BSP) supremo Mayawati, saying that she is a daughter of money and added that by blaming the saffron party she is trying to gain sympathy among voters.
"Everyone in Uttar Pradesh knows that Mayawati is not daughter of 'Dalit' but of wealth. By putting allegations on the Bharatiya Janata Party just before the elections, she is just trying to garner sympathy from voters," BJP MP Jagdambika Pal told ANI.
Earlier BSP chief Mayawati cautioned voters that neither an Samajwadi Party-Congress alliance nor a united SP can check BJP and that only her party would render a crushing blow to Modi government by defeating the saffron party in UP so that it does not take "immature" steps like the note ban.
Stressing that BJP has no moral right to level allegations against opponents and their family members and their business, she said its has crossed all limits of decency following political rivalry and started making such allegations just before the Assembly election
Mayawati said her family members had been doing their small business since the past several years but BJP found the shortcomings in them only at election time although they had been at the helm at the Centre for the past over two years.
