Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) president Mayawati on May 18 lashed out at the BJP for allegedly targeting religious places to divert people's attention from issues such as poverty, unemployment and inflation and cautioned that it will only weaken the country. She also said changing the names of the places associated with a particular religion will only create hatred.
"In order to divert people's attention from issues such as rising poverty, unemployment and skyrocketing inflation in the country, the BJP and its associate organisations are specially targeting religious places and this is not hidden from anyone," Mayawati told newspersons in Lucknow.
