She alleged that votes of the poor and deprived were bought in the polls through these funds, Mayawati said. The BJP cannot tolerate when people of the deprived sections progress, especially in business, and use power and government machinery against them, she claimed. Their attempt to crush the voice of the deprived people would not succeed, Mayawati said, adding that her supporters should not think that when she was not spared, what would happen to them.
She said that before pointing a finger at others, the party should introspect. "If they think they are Harishchand (honest) they should hold a probe about the wealth of their people before and after coming into politics," she said. The provisional order for the attachment of the seven-acre plot, beneficially owned by Anand Kumar and his wife Vichiter Lata, was issued on July 16 by the department's Delhi-based Benami Prohibition Unit (BPU).
Mayawati recently appointed her brother Kumar as national vice president of the Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP). Benami properties are those in which the real beneficiary is not the one in whose name the property has been purchased. The plot, where a five-star hotel and other luxury facilities were planned to be created, is registered at no 2A, Sector 94, Noida, in Uttar Pradesh's Gautam Budh Nagar district, part of the National Capital Region.
