Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) chief Mayawati on Sunday launched another attack on her nephew Akash Anand and accused him and his supporters of spreading rumours about her health. She said she decided to appear before the media herself after claims about her being unwell began circulating. She said she has taken several tough decisions recently in the interest of the BSP and that these decisions are helping the party.
She also explained why she chose to address the media when she had recently used posts on X to communicate on several political issues.
“Party workers and people in the media may be wondering why Behenji has come before the media when I have been dealing with many major issues through Twitter,” the BSP supremo said.
“It was said that I was ill and that is why I was tweeting. That is why I have come before the media myself,” she said.
Mayawati alleged the rumours about her health are being spread by Akash and people around him. She then referred to a phone call that she said her nephew made to BSP state in-charge Alok Kumar at around 10 pm.
