Accusing the BJP and the Samajwadi Party of only making tall claims but doing nothing on the ground, Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) president Mayawati on Tuesday gave a clarion call for a “Dalit-Brahmin” unity to bring her party back to power in the state.

Addressing a “Prabudh Varga Sammelan” at the end of the party’s month-long programme to reach out to upper-caste Brahmins across the state, Mayawati said both the BJP and the SP indulged in empty talks to win the votes of Dalits and Brahmins, but neither safeguarded their interests when in power.
