He said that without understanding the gist of BSP national president Mayawati’s tweet this morning, many people were making false assumptions. Mayawati had clearly said that the party would not ally with any national parties. Denying reports on the formation of a Third Front, she had made it clear that she would go it alone in Uttar Pradesh, he said.
