Fatehpur (UP), Feb 27 : The Indian Justice Party today charged BSP president and Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Mayawati with spreading hatred in society by setting up caste based committees.

"The chief minister has created further hatred in society by setting up caste based committees and holding their seminars and meetings throughout the state, seeking their support for the coming elections", IJP president Udit Raj said while addressing a public meeting here in Bindki.

Raj alleged that this has only strengthened parties like the BJP, Congress and the Samajwadi Party and under such circumstances, National Dalit Front was the only viable alternative.

He also criticised the BSP president for amassing "huge wealth" and alleged that she has betrayed the dalits. The Dalit Front has taken shape to protect their honour and place in society, he said.

Raj said that the front led by Union Fertiliser and Steel Minister Ram Vilas Paswan would contest 300 to 350 Lok Sabha seats in the coming elections.
