Will support Congress in MP, Rajasthan to keep BJP out of power: Mayawati
New Delhi: The Bahujan Samaj Party chief Mayawati today said that BSP would support the Congress in Madhya Pradesh, to keep BJP out of power.
“Results show that people in states like Chhattisgarh, Rajasthan and Madhya Pradesh were totally against the BJP and its anti-people policies. As a result, voters chose Congress due to lack of other major alternatives,” said BSP chief.
She also added that though BSP doesn’t agree with many of Congress’s policies but have agreed to support in Madhya Pradesh and if required they will extend support in Rajasthan.
