Responding to the allegations levelled by BSP supremo Mayawati on Centre and UP government, BJP and SP today hit out at her saying that she should first remember scams during her own regime.
"Prime Minister Narendra Modi government does not need a certificate from those who looted public money by constructing memorials and installing statues in their name as Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister," BJP state president Laxmi Kant Bajpai alleged in a statement issued here.
He said that the BSP supremo has probably forgotten that the achievements of their party during Lok Sabha was zero.
Bajpai alleged that pro-poor policies of Modi government were not going well with Mayawati.
On BSP supremo terming BJP as communal, he said that such words do not sound good from a person, who herself had been indulging into caste politics.
"Mayawati, who did politics in the name of Dalits, cheated them. Why did she tell what she did for Dalits during her regime," he questioned.
The state president said that Modi government was moving ahead with the resolve of 'Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas'.
The ruling SP said that allegations leveled by Mayawati on Akhilesh government were baseless, false and out of frustration.
"The allegations levelled by her on SP government are false, baseless and are out of sheer frustration," a party spokesman said here.
He said that before leveling such baseless allegations, BSP supremo must remember scams, corruption and jungleraj of her regime.
"Out of frustration BSP and its leaders, who are facing continous loss since 2012 state assembly elections and indulging into such gimmicks to hog media limelight," the spokesman alleged.
He alleged that the example of corruption and jungleraj set during BSP regime was nonparallel.
The spokesman said that SP government was working in the interest of the farmers and people.
"Schemes like 108 Samajwadi health service and 102 national ambulance service are being praised all over," he said.
