Inequalities have increased due to BJP's casteist behaviour: Mayawati

The Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) hit out at the ruling BJP on Tuesday, saying that owing to the saffron party's casteist behaviour and communal hatred, inequalities had increased in the country and its social fabric was disintegrating.

In a statement issued here, BSP chief Mayawati, while greeting the people on the occasion of Sant Ravidas Jayanti, said, "Owing to the casteist behaviour and communal hatred shown by the BJP, inequalities in the country have increased and the social fabric is disintegrating. This is making the lives of the common people very difficult and this is unfortunate."
