Simply two days earlier than the opposition assembly in Patna on June 23, Mayawati held a gathering with the senior officers of the state, mandal and all of the districts. Crucial factor about this assembly was that in this she made a powerful assault in opposition to BJP and Samajwadi Celebration however remained silent in opposition to Congress. This was seen after a very long time when she was silent on the Congress and the Congress-ruled states.
The BSP supremo mentioned that because of the actions of the central authorities, the social gathering is holding a eager eye on the quickly altering political state of affairs and the actions of the opposition events to take care of them. He mentioned that so as to divert consideration from the shortcomings, the BJP authorities is making an attempt to gasoline communal and caste disputes to divert consideration.
4 events could have an enormous function
Actually, despite the fact that Mayawati has stored herself away from the assembly held in Patna relating to opposition unity and he or she was not even invited for that assembly, however within the quickly altering political state of affairs within the nation and so as to save the political floor BSP supremo can depart her stand of Ekla Chalo and include the alliance.
In dialog with ABP Digital group about Mayawati’s stand Senior columnist Ravi Bhushan It says that primarily 4 events of Bihar and Uttar Pradesh will play an enormous function for opposition unity. These are Nitish Kumar, RJD, Samajwadi Celebration and Bahujan Samaj Celebration.
Ravi Bhushan mentioned that the BSP has not but joined the opposition unity, however it’s being instructed that it could come. However the sword of ED is hanging over everybody. There is no such thing as a political social gathering that washes the milk. There are allegations in opposition to all, and recordsdata have been made with the Centre. That is the present state of affairs.
Stand of ‘Ekla Chalo’ could change
whereas, speaking about Rajeev Sachan, Affiliate Editor, Dainik Jagran This exhibits that the pathetic situation of Congress in UP is identical situation of BSP. Each have reconciled earlier than and each want one another’s help. In such a state of affairs, it shouldn’t be a shock if there may be coordination between BSP and Congress. After the Karnataka elections, Congress is bound that the voters who had been reduce off from it have come again to them. Whereas Mayawati has wager on Muslim votes many occasions in UP, generally she has bought success and generally she has not.
SP could undergo an enormous loss
In such a state of affairs, if there may be an settlement between the Congress and the BSP within the 2024 Lok Sabha elections, they’ll get political profit, and the Samajwadi Celebration could be harmed by it. SP relies on Muslim and Yadav votes and wish to retain its voters.
Rajeev Sachan says that within the face of opposition unity, be it Akhilesh or Mamta, he needs Congress to contest elections on 200-250 seats solely. Opposition is searching for unity at the price of Congress, which suggests Karnataka ought to make extra sacrifices. Whereas Congress will hardly achieve this after Karnataka elections.
Akhilesh can also be pondering on the traces of Mamta Banerjee.

One of many main causes for Mayawati’s weak spot is that the Muslim vote drifted away from the BSP to the SP. Whereas Dalit votes and OBC votes are slipping to BJP to an extent. Subsequently, BSP additionally wants to search out such a companion social gathering, in order that its strongest stronghold in UP can compromise with its circumstances.
Congress has nothing to lose in UP
Congress has nothing to lose in Uttar Pradesh at the moment. In such a state of affairs, Congress can settle for the circumstances of BSP, if with its assist it will get 2-3 Lok Sabha seats. The state of affairs is such that at current it’s tough for the Congress to even save the Rae Bareli seat, it has already misplaced Amethi. Subsequently, within the states the place the upcoming elections are to be held, BSP has a restricted vote financial institution, in such a state of affairs, there could be an settlement between Congress and BSP. If this alliance is profitable, then this alliance can proceed in Lok Sabha additionally.
