Mayawati reengages with Muslim issues in Uttar Pradesh

timesofindia.indiatimes.com

BSP president Mayawati is shifting her focus back to Muslim issues after previously emphasizing Dalit and backward welfare. She recently criticized the UP government for misusing official power against Muslims and condemned the sealing of madrassas in Dehradun. Mayawati's earlier strategy involved reducing Muslim representation in response to poor electoral support. In the 2024 elections, the BSP only secured significant votes in five constituencies where Muslim candidates were fielded. Now, following internal party changes, Mayawati is addressing Muslim concerns more openly. Party sources indicate she aims to reconnect with her voter base as part of a broader strategy to revive the BSP.
