Political Parties come out with all guns blazing to woo dalits in UP!

As the Parliament elections are inching closer, political parties in Uttar Pradesh have come out with all guns blazing to woo downtrodden sections including the most backward classes (MBCs). The BSP having a large support base among the Dalits and the MBCs continues to be an important factor. Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath is holding conventions of scheduled castes. It has reworked its alliance with parties like the SBSP. It already has Apna Dal and Nishad Party as allies. The Congress launched the Dalit Gaurav Samvad on the death anniversary of BSP founder Kanshi Ram and held statewide conventions of backward classes. The Samajwadi Party has worked on the Pichhda Dalit Alpsankhyak (PDA) formula to strengthen its support base. The BSP has been holding cadre camps in different districts to consolidate its support base.
