Bahujan Samaj Party national coordinator Akash Anand on Monday said the Samajwadi Party fears the BSP the most. Addressing a party workers' conference in Hathras, he accused SP members of constantly shouting 'PDA' to distract from the BSP's work for Dalit uplift. Mayawati, he added, always cautions people against the SP's narrow casteist politics. Anand also attacked the BJP-led Uttar Pradesh government, alleging over Rs 7,000 crore spent on advertisements in a decade to hide failures in employment, education and law and order. He claimed more than four lakh government posts are vacant and many competitive exam papers have leaked.
