Mulayam warns Mayawati of tit-for-tat

Alleging that fake cases were being framed against Samajwadi Party workers, party chief Mulayam Singh Yadav on Thursday warned UP chief minister Mayawati that she might have to face the same situation in days to come.

"In days to come when Samajwadi Party comes to power we are not going to let off any of the guilty persons and I consider her (Mayawati) guilty," Mr Yadav who had on Wednesday visited party leaders and independent MLA from Kunda, Raghuraj Pratap Singh alias Raja Bhaiya, lodged in Bareilly jail told newspersons here.

Mr Yadav who had issued a similar warning yesterday that probe would be conducted into the acts of Mayawati government on coming to power, stressed that the life of those indulging in injustice is very short.

"At the most it could be for another year," he said indicating at the Assembly elections in the state scheduled in 2012.

He asked the chief minister to release all 11 SP leaders lodged in the Bareilly jail unconditionally.

Mr Yadav said he has asked the party unit to prepare a strategy and resolved to fight against the state government with the help of the people.

Taking a dig at the media which he claimed had run a campaign against his government branding it as 'Goonda Raj', Mr Yadav said the goonda elements in his party were shown the door but they all joined the BSP.

"We did not field such elements in the elections and the media should find out as to which party gave them tickets," he said.

Asking as to why the Ms Mayawati government had only been targeting the Samajwadi Party workers, he said it should be probed why no member of any other political party is being framed.

The SP chief also took strong exception to comparison being drawn between him and Ms Mayawati, and said that it was an insult for him.

I want to begin with a little story that was told to me by a leading executive at Aptech. He was exercising in a gym with a lot of younger people.

Shekhar Kapur’s Bandit Queen didn’t make the cut. Neither did Shaji Karun’s Piravi, which bagged 31 international awards.
