He also claimed that the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) is drowning the country's economy and breaking the society. "If the economy sinks, how will the youth get work and jobs?" he asked.?

On the upcoming urban body elections, the SP president said people will take into account rising inflation, unemployment, garbage piles, filth, increased house tax, water tax and high electricity prices as well as poor sanitation leading to diseases like dengue and typhoid in urban areas. ?

Speaking at a function in Rae Bareli after unveiling the statue of Kanshi Ram on Monday, the SP chief had said, "We are the people who follow the path shown by Bhimrao Ambedkar and Manyavar Kanshi Ram. We are not the ones who are out to make a dent in the 'bahujan samaj', but are those who bind them.”

Mayawati had on Sunday charged that the SP was trying to politically use the name of BSP founder Kanshi Ram even though it has a long history of being ungrateful to him as well as Ambedkar.
