Uttar Pradesh Deputy Chief Minister Dinesh Sharma Saturday accused the opposition parties of trying to create fear of Prime Minister Narendra Modi among the minorities to garner their votes and using the Muslims as their vote bank.

Attacking the Samajwadi Party (SP), Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) and Congress, Sharma, while addressing an election campaign here, said, "The opposition tells the minorities that the BJP will harm them if it comes to power again, which is not correct."
