New Delhi, May 31: BJP today dismissed as "day dreaming" the proposed "grand alliance" between Congress, Samajwadi Party and Rashtriya Lok Dal to oust the BJP-BSP regime in Uttar Pradesh and asserted the Mayawati-led coalition would complete its full tenure.
"The opposition is desperate and frustrated over its
failure to oust the Mayawati government. Hence, they are
indulging in day dreams. All their past attempts have failed,
so will it be in future," party spokesman Mukhtar Abbas Naqvi
told reporters here on the sidelines of the national executive
meeting of BJP's minority morcha.
Asserting that the coalition government in the state would complete its full tenure, Naqvi asked the opposition to abide by the people's mandate to sit in the opposition and play a constructive role.
Congress president Sonia Gandhi had in Srinagar hinted at the possibility of a "grand alliance" with Mulayam Singh Yadav's Samajawadi Party and Ajit Singh's RLD in Uttar Pradesh.
Indicating a possible split in the RLD, Naqvi also expressed scepticism on whether party MLAs would abide by Singh's decision to withdraw support to the coalition. Bureau Report
