HIGHLIGHTS
- She asked Congress to avoid spreading rumours
- SP-BSP-RLD are fighting Lok Sabha elections together
- The alliance is not fielding candidates in Amethi and Rae Bareli
Bahujan Samaj Party chief Mayawati slammed Congress on Monday and rejected its offer of not fielding candidates on seven Lol Sabha seats in Uttar Pradesh. In a tweet in Hindi, she said that the Congress is free to contest on all 80 Lok Sabha seats in the state and should not spread "Bhranti" (rumours) of leaving seven seats for BSP-SP-RLD alliance.
कांग्रेस यूपी में भी पूरी तरह से स्वतंत्र है कि वह यहाँ की सभी 80 सीटों पर अपने उम्मीदवार खड़ा करके अकेले चुनाव लड़े आर्थात हमारा यहाँ बना गठबंधन अकेले बीजेपी को पराजित करने में पूरी तरह से सक्षम है। कांग्रेस जबर्दस्ती यूपी में गठबंधन हेतु 7 सीटें छोड़ने की भ्रान्ति ना फैलाये।

She made clear that BSP has no alliance with the Congress anywhere in the country. She appealed to people to not believe in rumours.
बीएसपी एक बार फिर साफ तौर पर स्पष्ट कर देना चाहती है कि उत्तर प्रदेश सहित पूरे देश में कांग्रेस पार्टी से हमारा कोई भी किसी भी प्रकार का तालमेल व गठबंधन आदि बिल्कुल भी नहीं है। हमारे लोग कांग्रेस पार्टी द्वारा आयेदिन फैलाये जा रहे किस्म-किस्म के भ्रम में कतई ना आयें।

Congress was sidelined in Uttar Pradesh as Bahujan Samaj Party and Samajwadi Party forged an alliance for Lok Sabha elections. However, both the parties made it clear that the alliance is aimed at defeating the BJP.
Recently, SP-BSP alliance announced that it will not field a candidate in Amethi in Raebareli, the traditional seats of the Gandhi family. Congress then announced that it will not field candidates in constituencies of Akhilesh Yadav, Mayawati and their close relatives and aides. Mayawati's tweet apparently is in connection to this.
Uttar Pradesh used to be a Congress stronghold but the party lost its influence in the last few decades.
The SP-BSP alliance is a formidable challenge to the NDA in a politically important state like Uttar Pradesh.
Congress got a fresh boost when Priyanka Gandhi-Vadra became All India Congress Committee (AICC) general secretary for eastern Uttar Pradesh. Jyotiraditya Scindia was made in-charge of western UP.
