Elephant’s roll worries Congress!

BSP is making a strident attempt to capture power at the Centre
Kanshi Ram, the founder of Bahujan Samaj Party, had prescribed a three-step formula for his party to come to power – contest the elections first time to familiarise yourself with the election process, contest the second time to ensure defeat of the ruling party & contest for the third time to come to power.

Kanshi’s one-time protégé & party’s incumbent president Mayawati played her cards as per her mentor’s advice in Uttar Pradesh & formed the government in 1993 after contesting elections in 1989 and 1991. Now, Mayawati is trying to repeat her UP performance in other states as well, with an avowed objective to grab power at the Centre as well. BSP won one seat and was runner up on two other seats in the just concluded Himachal Pradesh assembly polls aggregating over 7% votes.

The party might not have won a single seat in Gujarat but it managed enough votes to ensure defeat of Congress candidates in about two dozen seats. It also won sizeable number of seats in Uttaranchal Assembly polls to oust the Congress from power there. The BSP has been netting 4 to 5% votes in Maharashtra, Madhya Pradesh, Chhatisgarh. Now, Maya memsaab has set her eyes on Delhi’s throne. For the past six months, she hasn’t spent a single week-end in Lucknow as she was organising rallies in Maharashtra, Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh, Kerala et al. “We are confident of annexing around 100 parliamentary seats”, BSP MP Brajesh Pathak told B&E.

As the elephant rolls on relentlessly, alarm bells are beginning to ring aloud not only in Congress headquarters but also in CPM and DMK headquarters. And we may see new political equations emerging at the national level. BSP, however, has ruled out electoral alliances. Maya it seems, wants to be the Queen, not the kingmaker.
