BSP says no to pre-poll deal in M.P.

Indore: Rejecting possibility of any pre-poll alliance, Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Mayawati-led Bahujan Samaj Party on Wednesday said that it will contest the coming Assembly election in Madhya Pradesh all alone.

The party has two MLAs in the present 230-member State Assembly, though it is confident to win clear majority in the coming election scheduled to be held on November 25.

Welcoming the announcement of poll dates by the Election Commission, BSP state chief Narmada Prasad Ahirwar said the people of the State are upset with both the Congress and the BJP.

People have been suffering due to rising prices caused by the wrong policies of the ruling Congress at Centre while the BJP Government in the State has failed to fulfil its promise to ensure law and order and basic facilities such as roads, water and electricity, Mr. Ahirwar told PTI. He added that the party will fight the election on its own and will come up with surprising result. -- PTI
