Lucknow. Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) president and former Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Mayawati welcomed the announcement of Delhi assembly elections and expressed hope that the Election Commission will save the elections from being contaminated by “communalism and other disgusting propaganda” along with the misuse of government machinery. BSP chief Mayawati posted on ‘X’ on Tuesday, “The Delhi Assembly elections will be held in one phase on February 5, 2025. Welcome the announcement made by the Election Commission in this regard.” She said, “The BSP is fighting this election on its own strength with full preparation and strength. It is hoped that the party will definitely perform well in this election. Mayawati said in a series of posts, “Elections are the backbone of democracy and BSP, a party of the poor and the oppressed, which stays away from muscle power and money power, expects from the Election Commission that in order to conduct free and fair elections, it will protect the elections from being contaminated by misuse of government machinery as well as communalism and other disgusting propaganda.” BSP chief Mayawati appealed to the voters in her post, “I appeal to them not to get swayed by the tempting promises of any party and use their votes wisely and vote only for BSP candidates dedicated to public interest and public welfare. This is where the public and national interest lies and is safe.
