Lucknow, June 24: Tearing out the stole of the alliance, The Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) has decided to contest all elections in the future alone. After meeting her party workers in Lucknow on Sunday, BSP leader Mayawati today said in a tweet that the behavior of Samajwadi Party (SP) after the recent Lok Sabha elections was the reason behind her decision.


 

She said the move will benefit her party. Mayawati said BSP made an alliance with SP even after the anti-Dalit policies and poor law and order situation during the Akhilesh Yadav regime.

Recently, BSP had decided to go alone in the Uttar Pradesh Assembly by-polls. Mayawati had said, it is not a permanent break in alliance with Samajwadi Party and if she feels in future that Akhilesh Yadav succeeds in his political work, the two parties will again work together.

 

The BSP Chief had asked party workers not to depend on the alliance to win votes but to improve the party's organization.

 

Also, Samajwadi Party President Akhilesh Yadav had said, his party will go solo in by-elections to 11 Assembly seats in Uttar Pradesh if its alliance with the BSP ends. Yadav had said that they will field SP candidates on all 11 seats after consulting party leaders soon.
