What Mayawati said:

  • Anand was being deliberately targeted by BJP government at the center to malign party's image and dent me politically but he did not bow down to the pressure.
  • He once assured me that he would not succumb to ensure that party keeps up with its Bahujan mission.
  • That is why I have decided to appoint him as party's vice-president.
