In a couple of posts on X on Thursday, Mayawati called the police lathi charge and brutality on the participants during the bandh in Patna very sad and condemnable. “The Bihar government should take action against the culprits and the Central government should take the sensitivity of the reservation issue seriously in view of the ‘Bharat Bandh’ and find a proper solution to it soon,” she said.

The BSP chief said yesterday’s shutdown showed how angry people are against the conspiracies of the SP, Congress, and BJP to eliminate the right to reservation of crores of people under SC/ST quota by making them inactive/ineffective. They will have to fight this battle on their own strength in the future too to ensure success.
