Lucknow, Nov 15: Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Mayawati’s decision to bring a resolution in the coming Assembly session for creation of four new states appears to have caught her political opponents by surprise ahead of the polls.
Samajwadi Party, BJP, Congress and the Rashtriya Lok Dal, which favours Harit Pradesh, fear that BSP might gain political mileage out of the division.
The main opposition Samajwadi Party which has always been clearly against any division of Uttar Pradesh on the ground that it would undermine the political authority of the largest state, fears that now it would have to take a stand in the Assembly that could go against the wishes of people of areas falling under Purvanchal, Pachimanchal and Bundelkhand.
“It is a political conspiracy and Samajwadi Party would oppose it both in the legislature as well as outside,” Leader of Opposition in UP Assembly Shivpal Singh Yadav said.
