Mayawati expels nephew Akash Anand from BSP over leadership rift
After relieving him of all party positions, Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) supremo Mayawati on Monday expelled her nephew and political successor, Akash Anand, from the party.
Expressing concern over the violence in Haldwani, Uttarakhand, and Bareilly, Uttar Pradesh, Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) chief Mayawati demanded that the governments of both states should maintain peace.
In a couple of posts on social media on Saturday, Mayawati said, “The violence in Haldwani of Uttarakhand state and the loss of life and property in it is extremely worrying. If the government, administration, and intelligence system had been alert, this incident could have been prevented. The government should conduct a high-level investigation and also maintain peace.”
