BJP has claimed that the questions over which Savitri Bai Phule is rebelling are fictitious. BJP spokesperson Harish Srivastava said :"Savitri Bai Phule is a revered MP from BJP, but she has done a rally over some imaginary issues. If she had an issue, she should have first brought it to party's forum". 37-year-old Savitri Bai first became an MLA in the year 2012 .
