The party also rejected her attack on Prime Minister Narendra Modi as low-level politics not worthy of a reply and alleged that she had turned BSP into a "shop" while it was a movement under its founder and her mentor Kanshi Ram.
While Modi has taken strong actions on the issue of national security and black money, both of which were his key elections issues in 2014 Lok Sabha polls, she had spoken against the army's surgical strike as well the government's surgical strike against black money.
