Bhaskar, a Dalit leader who was once known to be close to BSP supremo Mayawati and also served as a minister in UP earlier, recently said in a Facebook post that the BJP's "Sabka Saath Sabka Vikas" (collective effort, inclusive growth) slogan is without any basis. The saffron party has not taken Bhaskar's viewpoints well and there is deep resentment within the party ranks over this at the moment, said a report in Patrika.
