No alliance with any party, We will fight alone: Mayawati

Even though Mayawati decided to go solo during the last Lok Sabha elections, she surprised everyone after that. She allied with her rival Samajwadi Party. Likewise, even if Mayawati says that her party will contest the Lok Sabha elections alone this time too, analysts say that she may change her word after the election schedule is released. It is said that the alliance of BSP and Congress will benefit both parties in western Uttar Pradesh. Meanwhile, it is known that BSP has formed an alliance with Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) in Telangana for the Lok Sabha elections.
