Calling the Bahujan Samaj Party chief Mayawati, "BJP agent," Congress leader Sandeep Dikshit on Saturday said that the BSP chief is trying to regain the ground she lost after the last elections.

"Mayawati is trying to regain the ground she lost after the last elections. The Dalit vote which once supported her has now completely slipped out of her hands. Earlier, even in the worst-case scenario, she would get at least 30-40 MLAs and 2-4 MPs. But now that is a thing of the past... We suspect that she is working as an agent of the BJP because we no longer see her doing any work for her party. Perhaps she feels that if she can further divide the Muslim bank, it will weaken the opposition even more," Dikshit said.

Earlier today, Bahujan Samaj Party chief attacked the Samajwadi Party and Congress for not raising the issues of the country and public interest in the Parliament and said that both the parties are trying to please the Muslim voters under the pretext of violence in Sambhal.

"In the Parliament, the opposition is not raising the issues of the country and public interest. For their political interests, especially the SP and Congress party are trying to please the Muslim voters under the pretext of violence in Sambhal. They have nothing to do with other issues," the BSP chief said addressing a press conference.

"Not only this, but these parties are also making the Muslim communities Muslim communitie fight among themselves in Sambhal. The Muslim community also has to be cautious," she added.

She also questioned the silence of Congress on the Bangladesh issue and said that because of the "mistake" of Congress the people there are suffering losses.

"Hindus are becoming victims of crimes in large numbers in the neighbouring country Bangladesh. Most of them are Dalits and people from weaker sections...Congress party is silent and is now shouting 'Be careful' only for Muslim votes," the BSP chief said.

This came after allegations against the Bangladesh interim government of atrocities against Hindus in the country. (ANI)
