SP MP Ruchi Veera Claims Dalit Alliance Will Propel SP to Power in UP Elections
Ruchi Veera emphasizes the significance of Dalit support for the Samajwadi Party in upcoming UP elections, criticizing BJPs fear of the alliance.
Moradabad, November 15 (Daily Kiran) : In Moradabad, Samajwadi Party MP Ruchi Veera has made bold assertions regarding the upcoming Uttar Pradesh assembly elections. She stated that a significant number of Dalits and Ambedkarite supporters are rallying behind the Samajwadi Party (SP) and its coalition. According to her, this alliance will play a crucial role in forming the next government in the state.
Veera noted, “In the 2024 Lok Sabha elections, we saw a considerable turnout from the Dalit community. Ambedkarite individuals are uniting against the ideologies of Manu and are standing with our coalition. They will be instrumental in establishing an SP-led government.”
Targeting the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), she expressed that the ruling party is anxious about the growing support for the SP from the People’s Democratic Alliance (PDA), which represents backward classes, Dalits, and minorities. “The connection of PDA with the SP is the reason behind BJP’s unease,” she remarked.
Veera also leveled serious accusations against the Chief Election Commissioner, alleging that he has undermined the Constitution. She emphasized that every Indian has the fundamental right to vote, yet many legitimate voters have been disenfranchised. “Knowledge Kumar should resign immediately as he is facing significant backlash,” she added.
In her criticism of AIMIM leader Asaduddin Owaisi, Veera questioned his silence on BJP’s actions. She pointed out that mosques are being demolished, Muslim leaders and madrasas are being targeted, and false promises are being made to the youth. “Does Owaisi not see any of this? He seems only to notice the SP and Akhilesh Yadav, while ignoring the BJP’s wrongdoings,” she stated.
Discussing the electoral dynamics, Veera mentioned that the upcoming elections will be a direct contest. She believes that those aligned with the BJP will vote for them, while the marginalized and Dalit communities opposed to Manu’s ideologies will support the coalition to defeat the BJP.
On the topic of seat allocation, particularly regarding Congress’s demand for 181 seats, Veera indicated that the national leadership will decide the distribution. She advised Congress to request seats where they have strong candidates.
