"SP (Samajwadi Party), BSP (Bahujan Samaj PArty) and Congress have been affected by a bad habit that they consider even a human being just a number, Modi said.

He also attacked the SP and BSP over alleged corruption while apparently referring to the NRHM "scam", illegal sand mining mafia and allegations that some interior fittings were missing when SP chief Akhilesh Yadav vacated his government bungalow on the Supreme Court's direction.
