      This is a move to stop the Congress parties loss which seems to be on the verge of a wash out.. nevertheless, it makes no difference to BSP headed by CM Mayawati, as she is about to get a full majority due to this massive voter turnout for her support.

      Everyone in UP knows very well that, CM Mayawati is having better administrative skills, accompanied with refined social engineering capabilities, and her tenure of past 5 years provided increased growth (over 7%GDP), social harmony, improved infrastructure, education and Law & order conditions in UP..

      UP people are looking towards the very positive side of modest CM Mayawati, and clearly understand that she is certainly far far ahead a towering personality and is 1000 times better than any mafia goon Mulayam singh running crime syndicates or a country-looter mother-son duo Sonia/Rahul..
