Mayawati blames Akash's political immaturity, influence of father-in-law & wife. BSP workers say it was a result of an internal rift in which Ramji Gautam's side emerged successful.
Ishan, the younger brother of Akash Anand, had also attended a press conference Wednesday organised on the occasion of the BSP supremo’s 69th birthday in Lucknow.
Faced with the threat of losing its national party status, the BSP has fully invested itself in improving its performance in the upcoming Haryana Assembly election.
