Mayawati Revives 2007 Strategy: BSP Fields 2 Brahmins, 2 Muslims for 2027 UP Polls
•BSP supremo Mayawati announces four in-charges for key UP Assembly seats, signaling probable candidates for 2027 elections.
•The party revives its 2007 social engineering formula, fielding two Brahmin faces (Ashish Pandey, Vinod Mishra) and two Muslim leaders (Abul Qais Azmi, Firoz Aftab).
•BSP aims to combine Brahmin and Muslim support with its Dalit vote bank, capitalizing on Brahmin discontent with the ruling party over issues like UGC rules.
•The party plans to appoint in-charges for about 100 assembly seats in the next 2-3 months, targeting a win of at least 100 seats.
•Mayawati confirms BSP will contest the elections alone, rejecting alliances with SP, BJP, or Congress, citing past negative experiences.
