BSP chief Mayawati Saturday said the Congress will pay a “heavy price” for inducting her party’s Guna Lok Sabha candidate in the Congress. Earlier last week, the BSP’s Guna candidate Lokendra Singh had opted out and joined the Congress while extending support to the party’s sitting parliamentarian Jyotiraditya Scindia. “The Congress will have to pay a heavy price for this when time comes. The BSP supremo said the Congress government in the state had misused official machinery to pressurise Singh to withdraw in favour of Scindia. “You (BSP workers) should be ready that we will never contest elections in alliance with the BJP and Congress, both of which are casteist, capitalist parties,” she said.
