Mayawati says Dimple is her daughter-in-law

Kannauj: Samajwadi Party President Akhilesh Yadav, Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) supremo Mayawati and SP

Lucknow, April 25 (IANS) Bahujan Samaj Party president Mayawati on Thursday described Dimple Yadav as "a daughter-in-law of my own family". She blessed Dimple who touched her feet at a rally in Kannauj.

Mayawati took a break from her routine political speech and described Dimple as an "able, mature and an extremely sorted person".

Mayawati asked people to give her the respect of a daughter-in-law.

"After the alliance, I now whole-heartedly accept her as a daughter-in-law, a member of my own family. This is because Akhilesh Yadav gives me the respect due to an elder in the family. I, too, have developed a special relationship with his wife and I am confident it will continue in the future."

Urging the crowds to help Dimple win with a massive majority, Mayawati said this would help strengthen the social revolution.

She said that the BJP would try to create hurdles in the alliance by trying to drive a wedge between leaders and all should be aware of such tactics.

"But I would like the BJP to know that none of their tricks is going to work any longer," she said.
