Mayawati expels 7 MLAs, vows to take revenge on Akhilesh

Bahujan Samaj Party President Mayawati on Thursday expelled seven MLAs and blamed the Samajwadi Party (SP) for being anti-Dalit. She said withdrawing the case related to the state guest house incident of 1995 was a ‘mistake’ on her part.

In a press statement, Mayawati said she had entered into an alliance with the SP in 2019, setting aside the acrimony of the June 2, 1995 incident.

“Akhilesh kept telling Satish Chandra Mishra to withdraw the guest house case which I did. The BSP fully supported the SP candidates in the Lok Sabha elections, but we did not get their votes,” she said.

She further said that the seven legislators who had betrayed the party were being expelled from the party. The expelled legislators are Aslam Chaudhary, Aslam Raini, Muztaba Siddiqui, Hakam Lal Bind, Govind Jatav, Sushma Jatav and Vandana Singh.

She said that as soon as these MLAs violate the anti-defection laws, disqualification petitions would be moved against them.
