BSP chief Mayawati has invoked the 1995 Lucknow guest house incident to criticize the Congress and the Samajwadi Party (SP) for their inaction during an alleged deadly assault on her. She accused the Congress, which was in power at the time, of failing to protect her and questioned their motives, suggesting they aimed to impose President's rule in Uttar Pradesh. Mayawati praised the BJP and other opposition leaders for rescuing her from the SP, claiming their actions were driven by humanity. She reiterated her party's long-standing demand for a caste census, challenging both Congress and BJP on their commitment to securing the rights of SC, ST, and OBC communities. Additionally, she dismissed rumors of her retirement, affirming her dedication to the BSP's movement. Mayawati's statements come amid ongoing political tensions and ahead of upcoming elections, emphasizing her stance against forming alliances with Congress and SP.
