BSP Faces Internal Struggles Amid Dalit Political Shifts in Uttar Pradesh
The Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) faces internal challenges and shifting political dynamics. Mayawati has repeatedly expelled and reinstated her nephew Akash Anand amid loyalty concerns, reflecting ongoing family and party tensions. Meanwhile, the legacy of BSP founder Kanshiram remains influential in Dalit politics, with some viewing him as a visionary. The BSP's declining influence in Uttar Pradesh contrasts with broader Dalit political fragmentation involving other parties like the Samajwadi Party and BJP.
