NDTV
BJP deployed money and muscle power, misused State machinery, similar to what Samajwadi Party did while in power, and claimed victory in Zila Panchayat and Block Pramukh polls, Mayawati alleged.
Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) chief Mayawati today hit out at the BJP and the Samajwadi Party (SP), equating the current and past governments in Uttar Pradesh to "jungle raj-like anarchy" and claimed widespread irregularities in the recently held panchayat elections in the state. "The jungle raj-like anarchy prevailing under the BJP in Uttar Pradesh is no less than what it was under the previous Samajwadi Party regime," she said in a statement in Hindi. The BJP deployed money and muscle power, misused the State machinery, similar to what the SP had done when it was in power, and claimed victory on most seats in Zila Panchayat and Block Pramukh polls, she alleged. "This has shamed democracy once again. This is condemnable, unfortunate and a cause of worry for all," she said.
