"Prime Minister A B Vajpayee, Deputy Prime Minister L K Advani Congress President Sonia Gandhi and Imam Bukhari of Jama Masjid are hand-in-glove to dislodge me. Vajpayee calls SP a natural ally of the NDA, Advani says after three months our government will be dislodged, Congress leaders are threatening to withdraw support to us and Bukhari is issuing fatwa in support of the BJP," he alleged while addressing an election rally here.
The Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister said such "tactics" were being used to create confusion in the minds of the Muslim voters who have been giving all out support to his party.
