Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath on Saturday charged BSP president Mayawati with seeking votes for those who had disrespected Babasaheb Ambedkar. “You can see how low politics has gone. Mayawati is today campaigning for those who used to humiliate Babasaheb Ambedkar. Those who do not respect India are not worth voting for,” Mr. Adityanath said at an election rally in Bijnor. He was referring to a recent joint election rally of the ‘mahagathbandhan’ in Rampur, in support of Samajwadi Party’s Lok Sabha candidate Azam Khan.
