Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) chief and former Uttar Pradesh chief minister Mayawati on Wednesday (3rd of April) promised to give Special Category Status (SCS) to the Andhra Pradesh state.
Addressing reporters at a press meet along with JanaSena party chief Pawan Kalyan, Mayawati said, the Congress Party did injustice by bifurcating the State without giving the special category status, and the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) failed to keep the SCS promise made during 2014 General Elections.
Mayawati also said, the BSP, JanaSena, CPI and CPI (M) alliance headed by Pawan Kalyan will be formed the next government in the Andhra Pradesh.
She further said, Pawan Kalyan has a strong desire to serve the poor and backward communities.
General Elections to the 175 Assembly and 25 Lok Sabha constituencies in Andhra Pradesh are scheduled for April 11.
Janasena as part of an alliance deal with the Communist Party of India (CPI), the Communist Party of India-Marxist (CPI-M) and the Bhahujan Samaj Party (BSP), it allocated 2, 2 and 3 Lok Sabha seats respectively.
It also decided to give 7 assembly seats to CPI, 7 assembly seats to CPM, and 21 assembly constituencies to BSP.
Pawan Kalyan further offered majority of seats to Young leaders, Women and Backward Communities.
