Uttar Pradesh Fisheries minister and NISHAD party chief Sanjay Nishad on Thursday met Deputy Chief Minister Brajesh Pathak amid reports of fissures in the party.
Nishad had challenged the BJP to break the alliance and face consequences.
Talking to reporters after meeting Pathak, the Nishad party chief said, “We faced the fake PDA like a rock and deflated them. But there are some ‘imported’ leaders who are deflating the BJP and they are reaping the benefits.”
“The BJP needs to be cautious of its leaders who are harming them. If Modi is there, it is possible. PM Narendra Modi and Home Minister Amit Shah have always worked to bring schemes for fishermen. But instead of promoting it, BJP leaders are spreading wrong messages in the Nishad community,” he added.
On the politics of creating pressure on BJP before the Panchayat elections, he said it is not like that. “All the parties are together in this fight. BJP was with us yesterday and today,” he said.
When asked about Nishad Party’s convention in Delhi this time, Sanjay Nishad said” This is a fight to raise voice for one’s rights. There is nothing like that. Everyone has the right to express their views”.
Earlier on Tuesday in Gorakhpur , Sanjay Nishad has threatened that if they (BJP) think there is no benefit then they are free to break the alliance.
