BSP President Mayawati Appoints Brother, Nephew To Top Posts

Lucknow: Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) president Mayawati reintroduced nepotism into the party on Sunday by again appointing her brother Anand Kumar as party vice president and her nephew Akash Anand as national coordinator.

BSP President had appointed Anand Kumar as party vice president in April 2017, but he had stepped down from his post in May 2018 ostensibly because he did not wish anyone to level charges of nepotism against Mayawati.

The BSP President made this announcement on Sunday while addressing a national convention of the party here.

Mayawati said that it was a matter of national concern that the BJP was pushing the “one nation, one election” agenda which, according to her, was actually a way of manipulating electronic voting machines (EVMs).

“If there is one election for the country, the BJP will succeed in its game plan and the country will be deprived of an opposition. If the BJP is so sure of its popularity, then why does the party shy away from the use of ballot papers in elections?” she asked. (IANS)
