'World laughed at Rahul Gandhi...': Mayawati's response after Congress' tie-up offer in UP claim

Rahul Gandhi on Saturday said the Congress had offered to form an alliance with BSP chief Mayawati in the recent Uttar Pradesh assembly election and make her the chief ministerial candidate but "she did not even talk to us".
Lashing out at the BSP supremo, the former Congress president alleged that Mayawati gave a clear passage to the ruling BJP in the state because of "the CBI, the ED and Pegasus".
Mayawati on Sunday rejected Gandhi's claim and asked him to get his own house in order instead of worrying about other parties.
Hitting back, Mayawati said all the allegations reflect Gandhi’s party's "casteist mindset" and feeling of malice.
She also accused the Congress of failing to take any concrete step during its long tenure to improve the socio-economic condition of Dalits and other deprived sections.
Mayawati said that before making comments about the BSP, Congress should think about its own record in fighting against the BJP.
