“A government of this alliance will be formed in Madhya Pradesh to end the atrocities on Dalits, tribals and women. This will also end the dictatorial and capitalist rule of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and Congress and the poor will get justice,” the two parties said in a press statement issued later.
Elections to the 230-member Madhya Pradesh assembly are due in November this year.
In the 2018 assembly polls, the BSP had won two seats. However, one of their MLAs later joined the BJP.
