Rajya Sabha Polls: Mayawati Slams Samajwadi Party for 'Dynastic Politics, Favouring Capitalists'
She said the party chose family members and a Reliance executive for Rajya Sabha seats, calling its PDA pitch a political pretence.
- On Friday, BSP president Mayawati accused the Samajwadi Party of practicing dynastic politics and favoring wealthy industrialists in recent Rajya Sabha nominations, contradicting its claims of representing backward, Dalit, and minority communities.
- Mayawati cited the renomination of senior leader Ram Gopal Yadav, uncle of Samajwadi Party president Akhilesh Yadav, and Reliance Industries executive Dhanraj Parimal Nathwani as evidence of the party's contradictory PDA approach.
- Alleging that the Samajwadi Party's claims of representing PDA were a "political pretence," Mayawati claimed the BSP fields dedicated Ambedkarite workers from poor and weaker sections, free from dynastic or money-driven considerations.
- The BSP president urged voters not to be misled by the party's narrative, asserting the Samajwadi Party seeks votes in the name of PDA while primarily rewarding family members and big capitalists with MP and MLA positions.
- Ahead of the 2027 Uttar Pradesh Assembly elections, Mayawati urged poor people from upper castes and members of the "Bahujan Samaj," including Dalits, tribals, and Muslims, to remain vigilant against the Samajwadi Party's strategy.
