Why raise matters now, close to the elections,” asked BJP’s Hardoi MP Anshul Verma. Mohanlalganj MP Kaushal Kishore asked: “Why raise the issue now, after the Bharat Bandh agitation and that too through media? Such MPs may just be looking at their own interest rather than the work done by the party for the backwards.”Kishore said he had met the UP CM several times. “I don’t understand why some MPs are accusing the CM of being anti-Dalit. All know BJP has no intention of diluting the rights of SC/ST community,” Singh said.
