BSP will contest all 2027 elections independently: Mayawati
Sep-03-2026

National President of Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP), Mayawati has announced that the party will contest all forthcoming elections across India independently, including the 2027 Uttar Pradesh Assembly elections. 

At a national-level party meeting in Lucknow, Mayawati said the party will fight all small and big elections on its own and will not depend on alliances. She has also ruled out giving her nephew Akash Anand any major party responsibility for now as she reshapes the BSP’s strategy for the coming electoral battles.

Mayawati further said the interests of the Bahujan Samaj and the party's mission of making the exploited sections a ruling class remain her top priorities, adding that attaining political power is necessary to achieve this objective. 

The BSP had adopted a similar go-it-alone strategy in the 2022 Uttar Pradesh Assembly election. It fielded candidates in all 403 constituencies but won just one seat. The Uttar Pradesh Assembly Election is scheduled for early next year.
