NEW DELHI: BSP supremo Mayawati on Tuesday blamed the Jat community for the party’s disappointing performance in the Haryana assembly elections.
The former UP CM said that the ‘casteist’ mentality of the Jat community led to the party’s flop show despite alliance with INLD in the polls. She urged them to change their mindset while comparing them with the Jat community in Uttar Pradesh, who she claimed had largely overcome their casteist thinking
“The BSP and the INLD fought the Haryana assembly general election in alliance.But today’s result shows that the casteist people of the Jat community did not vote for the BSP due to which the party candidates lost on some seats by a small margin of votes, although the BSP’s entire vote was transferred,” said Mayawati in a post on X.

“The people of the Jat community of UP have changed their casteist mentality to a great extent and they have become MLAs from the BSP and ministers in the government. The people of the Jat community of Haryana should also follow their footsteps and change their casteist mentality. This is a special advice,” She added.
The BJP secured a record third consecutive victory, winning 48 seats, while the Congress won 37, and the INLD managed only two seats in the Haryana assembly elections. Three seats went to Independent candidates. The BSP received a 1.82 per cent vote share, and its ally INLD received 4.14 per cent, according to the Election Commission data.
