The Azad Samaj Party chief stated that he would allocate 50 percent of the assembly seats to the backward classes in the elections and pledged to ensure their political participation.

Speaking to reporters after the meeting, he said that the Ayodhya Dham railway station expansion project itself is under question. More than 150 houses belonging to the Scheduled Castes have been demolished, and the people whose land is being acquired are neither receiving compensation nor rehabilitation.

He accused the state government and local administration of acquiring land belonging to the poor and selling it to industrialists at throwaway prices.
