SP too part of unholy alliance, says Rajnath

Kolkata: The Bharatiya Janata Party on Sunday said the Samajwadi Party had entered into an unholy alliance with the Congress to bail out the United Progressive Alliance government on the nuclear deal issue.

“The UPA itself is the creation of an unholy alliance and now the SP is also part of it,” BJP president Rajnath Singh told journalists here.

He demanded that the Prime Minister prove majority in Parliament after the Left parties withdraw their support.

“Opportunism”

BJP leader Murli Manohar Joshi accused SP president Mulayam Singh of indulging in politics of opportunism.

Addressing the media in Kanpur, Mr. Joshi said that while his party was against the current form of the India-United States nuclear deal, the SP was now in favour of the deal just to keep the BJP out of power.

“The SP was against the nuclear deal till recently, but suddenly it decided to back the Centre as the party fears that the BJP may come to power if the UPA government falls,” Mr. Joshi said. — PTI
