In a strong statement, Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) president Mayawati urged the Centre and Opposition to prioritize pressing national issues during Parliament's Winter Session. She emphasized the need for cooperation between parties to address problems like unemployment and poverty, rather than engaging in partisan clashes.
Mayawati's appeal comes amid controversies surrounding the Adani Group allegations and the Sambhal mosque survey dispute that disrupted Parliamentary proceedings. She called upon both Government and Opposition to demonstrate seriousness in addressing the nation's challenges.
Addressing party meetings, the former Uttar Pradesh chief minister stressed the importance of political empowerment for Dalit communities and criticized the current government for prioritizing divisive and religious agendas over economic and educational responsibilities. She reiterated the party's commitment to Dr. B.R. Ambedkar's vision and announced plans for commemorative programs on his legacy.
