BSP polls more votes than victory margin in 16 UP seats http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/articleshow/110747609.cms Had these seats also gone to the INDIA kitty, it would have taken the NDA’s total tally down to 278 and the BJP’s to 226. Rema Nagarajan / TNN / Jun 6, 2024,

IN UP, MAYAWATI'S BSP FAILED TO PLAY SPOILER FOR OPPOSITION, HURT BJP MORE https://thewire.in/politics/in-up-mayawatis-bsp-failed-to-play-spoiler-for-opposition-hurt-bjp-more .. After being outrightly rejected by the people again, Mayawati has once again blamed Muslims for her loss, arguing that despite fielding a large number of candidates from the minority community its voters failed to back her Bahujan Samaj Party, writes Omar Rashid.

Going solo proved to be disastrous for Mayawati as the BSP not only failed to open its score but could only manage to secure around 9.4% votes in Uttar Pradesh where Dalits make up 21.5% of the population.
