LUCKNOW: Hitting out at Prime Minister Narendra Modi, BSP president Mayawati on Wednesday said his legacy as the chief minister of Gujarat is a “black spot” and “burden” on the BJP as well as the communal history of the country.

The former Uttar Pradesh chief minister also said that Modi was “unfit” as chief minister and prime minister and his tenure has seen “anarchy and hatred”.

“My tenure as chief minister of UP for four times has been clean and works done on law and order, developmen­t, people’s welfare front are remembered even today. PM Modi has been CM of Gujarat for a longer time but his legacy is such it is a black spot not only on himself but also on the BJP and a burden on communal history of the country,” she said here.

“It is clear how fit the BSP president is on issues of people’s welfare and national interest and how unfit the prime minister is,” she said.

“During our government, UP remained free of anarchy and riots but Narendra Modi’s tenure not only as the Gujarat CM but also as the prime minister has been full of anarchy, violence, tension and hatred and so it can be said that he has failed in holding public office and is unfit,” Mayawati said.

Alleging that the BJP forced GST and note ban on the country in an immature manner, she said it had been done so as to prove themselves as ‘doodh ka dhula’ (honest) and others as wrong.

“Their favourite and corrupt capitalist­s fled the country with the money of the common people deposited in banks. This was made possible only with connivance of Modi government,” she charged.
