The disgraced former UP BJP chief Dayashankar Singh’s wife Swati Singh has accused BSP members of ‘traumatizing’ her minor daughter. Till date she is hearing cruel comments regarding her husband’s fate by BSP members in broad daylight, she added that she and her daughter were not being spared as well and had been dragged into the politics.

“Look, the law is doing whatever it has to in regard with my husband’s comment. But can four punishments be doled out because of one sin? He had been removed from his post, an FIR has been filed against him, he is facing several other charges and he has been removed from the party. After doing all this, Mayawati is still not satisfied. If she had her way, she would have my husband’s head,” Swati said.

“Shouldn’t Mayawati take action on her people for saying such things for my daughter? Rules that applied to my husband apply to BSP members as well,” Swati said.

“My daughter is in trauma. Even in school, the other kids pointed out to her the controversy. She is so disturbed that she is not leaving the house. They have dragged my daughter into politics. Why is it that those who are walking around offering 50 lakh rupees as reward for my husband’s tongue not being condemned? Where are the women activists now?,” Swati said.

Whenever elections approach Congress, BSP, AAP and other parties try their level best to create unrest in the states and try to milk out votes against BJP. If the issue is for real, the controversy should have died down after action is taken by BJP and FIR filed against Dayasankar Singh. But it is escalating. From this we can understand the issue is not real but to gain political gains. There is also a question that remains, who will take action against the people who are abusing the wife and 12 year old daughter of Dayasankar?
