Mayawati urges voters to choose a government that cares

During the ongoing voting process, Mayawati expressed her discontent, asking, "What happened to the tempting promise of good days, why is life so troubled?" The BSP supremo, known for her strong stance, didn't hold back in criticizing both the BJP and Congress during the second phase of voting. Urging people to exercise their voting rights, she emphasized the importance of their participation.

"In the second phase of Lok Sabha elections today, especially the poor, unemployed, farmers, women, and other deprived people must think," Mayawati remarked, encouraging citizens to reflect on their expectations versus reality. She called upon the Bahujan community to step out and vote for a government that prioritizes their interests and ensures their well-being.

Mayawati took to Twitter to voice her concerns, questioning the disparity between the promised "good days" and the current hardships faced by many. Drawing parallels to the unfulfilled promises of the Congress' "Garibi Hatao" slogan, she criticized the BJP for failing to deliver on its commitments.

"The basic duty of the government is to ensure the expected development of the Bahujans," Mayawati asserted, stressing the importance of governing with a humanitarian and welfare-oriented approach as mandated by the Constitution. She lamented the continued struggles of millions of marginalized individuals, including the poor, Scheduled Castes, Scheduled Tribes, Other Backward Classes, and minorities.

Mayawati called upon voters to prioritize the nation's interests over any specific party or individual, urging them to vote for a government that will strive for a poverty and unemployment-free future. Emphasizing the significance of every vote, she appealed to the 125 crore working people of the country to support a Bahujan-friendly government.

As voting commenced in eight Lok Sabha seats of Western Uttar Pradesh, Mayawati's message resonated alongside appeals from other political figures. Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath also urged citizens to vote for a "safe and developed India," emphasizing the transformative power of each vote in shaping the nation's future. "First voting, then refreshments," echoed the common sentiment, underscoring the importance of civic duty before indulgence.
