Ms. Mayawati Ji
(BSP National President, MP (Rajya Sabha & former Chief Minister, Uttar Pradesh)
https://www.mainstreamweekly.net/article7062.html
Kumari Mayawati, the chief of the Bahujan Samaj Party, has alleged that
the prime reason for the landslide victory of the BJP in the Uttar
Pradesh elections is due to tampering with the EVMs. “How come the BJP
managed to win in Muslim bastions across the State? Did the EVMs not
accept votes cast for other parties?”where she has a valid point in her allegations.—Mayawati wondered.
There are no exceptional reasons for Muslims to move into the BJP fold
at this juncture. The BJP had not even offered a single seat to Muslims
to contest the elections and yet the party has won many seats from the
Muslim-dominated constit-uencies. The Congress has supported the BSP
leader’s demand for a probe into the EVMs along with the Samajwadi
Party, Laloo Prasad Yadav and others. “Whether her doubts are founded or
unfounded, it is a matter to be addressed by the Election Commission in
order to erase all doubts about the integrity, honesty and impartiality
of the electoral process which is intrinsic to uphold the democratic
traditions of our country.
The
very fact that the EVMs have to be replaced is in itself a clear proof
that the EVMs are tampered by the Murderers of democratic institutions
(Modi) to win elections.
Ex
CJI Sathasivam had committed a grave error of judgement by ordering
that the EVMs have to be replaced in a phased manner instead of ordering
to use Ballot Papers.
So
the present CJI must order for dissolving the Central and all stat
governments selected by these fraud EVMs and go for fresh polls with
Ballot Papers to save Universal Adult Franchise and Democracy as
enshrined in our marvelous modern Constitution which negated by the
fraud EVMs.
The
softwareand its source code is manufactured by foreign countries whih
is not even shared with the ECI. That being the case it is ridiculous
forthe CEI to challenge the common voters to challenge the tampering of
the fraud EVMs without making the software and the source code public
which is the right of the voters of a Democratic country.

BSP demands use of ballot paper in Assembly polls

Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP), that had complained of Electronic Voting
Machine tampering in the Uttar Pradesh elections, has now asked the
Election Commission of India to use traditional ballot papers in the
upcoming Assembly polls in Karnataka.
Addressing a media
conference here on Saturday, Marasandra Muniyappa, State Coordinator and
party’s Karnataka in-charge, alleged that EVM tampering by the
Bharatiya Janata Party was the only reason for his party’s defeat in
Uttar Pradesh.
“Nowhere in the world, except India, are EVMs used
in elections as there was a possibility of tampering. It is EVM
tampering alone that led to our defeat in Uttar Pradesh. Tampering was
not done in Punjab, Goa, Manipur and Uttarakhand that also went to the
polls with Uttar Pradesh. It was done only in Uttar Pradesh as it had
become an issue of prestige for BJP to record a victory there,” he said.
He added that his party approached the court as it had sufficient
evidence to establish EVM tampering, he said.
Mr. Muniyappa exuded
confidence of winning at least 25 seats in the elections in Karnataka.
“We were in second or third place in five constituencies in the last
election. We have built party structures at grassroots level and
expanded our mass base in many constituencies,” he said.
Criticising
Prime Minister Narendra Modi for hailing Dr. B.R. Ambedkar in words and
taking “anti-Ambedkarite stance” in deeds, Mr. Muniyappa said that BJP
was a party of “anti-people and pro-corporate classes.” “The BJP has
always been against the poor people of this country. Dalits, backward
classes, minorities and other oppressed sections have suffered a lot
under its rule. Dalits and Muslims are being killed in the name of
protecting cows. It was the party that had led agitations against Mandal
Commission’s reconditions for reservations to Backward Classes,” he
said.
EVMs are Vulnerable to Fraud
A study by Hari K. Prasad, J. Alex Halderman and Rop Gonggrijp found
India’s EVMs were vulnerable to fraud though the Election Commission of
India has spoken of India’s EVMs as “infallible” and “perfect”.
“Electronic Voting Machines used around the world have been shown to
suffer from serious security problems,” they had opined. According to
them, “India’s machines had never been subjected to credible independent
research. The Election Commission’s two expert committee reports were
rather minimal and were performed by scientists with no apparent
electronic voting security credentials. These studies were conducted
without access to the machines’ source code and relied on presentations
and site visits with the manufacturers.”
In contrast, the group had performed its own experiments with a real
machine and had demonstrated working attacks. The study had found that
an attacker with brief access to EVMs can tamper with votes and
potentially change election outcomes. They had demonstrated two attacks
that involved physically tampering with the EVMs’ hardware. First, they
had shown how dishonest election insiders or other criminals could alter
election results by replacing parts of the machines with malicious
look-alike parts. Such attacks could be accomplished without the
involvement of any local poll official. Second, they showed how
attackers could use portable hardware devices to change the vote-records
stored in the machines. This attack could be carried out by local
election officials without being detected by the national authorities or
the EVM manufacturers. Safeguards against these attacks are either
absent or woefully inadequate in the country.7
It would be easy, according to them, to programme a dishonest EVM or
EVM component so that the manipulation is only performed after voting
has been going on for a long time, or if the total number of votes is in
hundreds. That way, simple mock polls will show the proper results, but
all the final election results will be manipulated.
The fact that the election authorities have not allowed public
scrutiny of the security of EVMs doesn’t make them secure. “There are
more than 1.4 million EVMs in India, and criminal attackers would likely
have less difficulty getting access to a machine than we did. Unlike
actual criminals, we are working to inform the public about the security
problems we found.”8
What does this mean for a functioning democracy? Electronic machines
are liable to be manipulated. Whether they have been manipulated or not
is to be found out through verification. If they are, then there would
be the larger questions of democracy and what its implications would be
for the people.

Achievments of the party
The BSP’s primary achievements have been with respect to the state
governance of Uttar Pradesh. The welfare schemes implemented in UP have
greatly benefited the poor and downtrodden sections of the society,
including the women, disabled persons and members of religious
minorities.
- Notable amendments of the ‘zamindari kanoon’ or the rules of the
patriarchal landed property of the zamindars were made, to benefit the
farmers, women, labourers and others.
- A number of schemes or yojnas initiated in UP have helped poor
families to a significant extent. Some of these notable schemes are
‘Uttar Pradesh Mukhyamantri Mahamaya Gharib Arthik Madad Yojna’,
‘Savitribai Phule Shikhsha Madad Yojna’, ‘Mahamaya Gharib Balika
Ashirwad Yojna’, ‘Dr. Ambedkar Gram Sabha Samagra Vikas Yojna’,
‘Manyawar Shri Kanshiram Ji Sheri Gharib Awas Yojna’ and others. These
schemes have made possible the families of the Below Poverty Line (BPL)
list to get free education, housing and other assistance from the BSP.
- More significantly, the BSP has catered to the needs of members of
the lower-castes belonging to various professions such as lawyers,
doctors, teachers, etc.
- The BSP have made significant contributions to the infrastructure,
maintenance of law and order in UP, medical and health facilities to the
people, as well as rural and urban empowerment.
All the developmental policies of the BSP follow in their aim: “Sarvajan
Hitay- Sarvajan Sukhay” or the peace and prosperity of all the members
of the depressed classes.

The
intelligent cadres for Sarvajan hithay Sarvajan sukhaya have to
approach. all the voters physically and through WhatsApp, Facebook,
Twitter, SMSes, emails and through virgin media but not PRESSTITUTES to
make them vote:
EVM vs Ballot Papers
ie.,
BJP vs BSP
Awakened with Awareness
Maha Mayawati vs Dull-headed Chief Chitpavan brahmins RSS (Rakshsa Swayam Sewaks)
Modern Constitution vs Outdated Manusmriti
Non-violence vs intolerant violence
Compassion vs intolerance
Equality vs inequalities
Democracy vs fascism
Sanity vs insanity
Elephant vs Lotus
The result will show 99% votes for BSP and less than 1% for BJP
Let’s go!
It is only after Mayawatiji exposed the EVMs scam the whole world got awakened.
Again if Mayawatiji directs the most intelligent cadres starting
from state to booth level to go to the voters with Ballot Papers
consisting names and symbols of all the national and state level
political parties to request the voters to vote for the party they like.
That way people can choose their party in a free and fair manner. This
will be a list system of elections to vote for party and not for
individuals. The Concerned party can nominate the representatives on the
basis of how many voters each cadre had contacted. The results after
counting the votes could be made public through social media and media
who support democracy.
Mayawati Dares BJP To Hold Polls Using Ballot Papers
Tilak taraju aur talwaar
Inko maaro jute chaar
(Mayawati slogan during 1990)
“Chalega Haathi Udegi dhool, na rahega punja na rahega phool” (When the elephant walks triumphantly, neither the hand (congress) nor the flower (BJP) survives).
“Naagnaath Saapnaath” ( both are poisonous snakes) BSP describing BJP
and Congress ‘Vote se lenge PM/CM, arakshan se lenge SP/DM’ (we will win
PM/CM with vote, SP/DM with reservation. “Chad gundon ki chhati par,
mohar laga do haathi par” ( Crush teh chest of goondas and vote the
elephant) Mayawati used this slogan in 2007 elections. “UP hui hamari
hai, ab dilli ki baari hai” ( UP is ours, now its Delhi turn next) after
UP assembly elections in 2007……aiming for national elections for
power in NEW DELHI. ‘Baba Saheb Mission Tera, Kanshi Ram Karenge Pura’
.Later changed to ‘Baba Saheb Mission Tera, Behenji Karenge Pura’.
BSP Ki Kya Pehchan, Neela Jhanda Haathi Nishan’.
‘Pathar Rakh Lo Chaati Par, Button Dabao Haathi Par’.
Again if Mayawatiji directs the most intelligent cadres starting
from state to booth level to go to the voters with Ballot Papers
consisting names and symbols of all the national and state level
political parties to request the voters to vote for the party they like.
That way people can choose their party in a free and fair manner. This

(https://www.britannica.com/topic/list-system
party-list system, a method of voting for several electoral candidates, usually members of the same political party, with one mark of the ballot. It is used to elect the parliaments of many western European countries, including Switzerland, Italy, the Benelux countries, and Germany. Electors vote
for one of several lists of candidates, usually prepared by the
political parties. Each party is granted seats in proportion to the
number of popular votes it receives. There are several rules for
computing the number of seats awarded to a party, the best known being
the “d’Hondt rule” and the “largest-remainder rule.” Seats are usually
awarded to candidates in the order in which their names appear on the
lists. Although ordinarily the list system forces the voters to cast
their votes for parties rather than for individual candidates, a number
of variations on the system permit voter preferences for individuals to
be taken into account. The Swiss system, one of the most extreme
variations, is marked by panachage, the ability of the voter to mix candidates from several party lists if he so desires.)
Napolean
had once said that ” I can face two battalions but not two scribes”.
Now you can see such scribes only in social media such as Facebook,
WhatsApp, Twitter, websites, blogs, SMSes and those who send block
emails etc.,
In
these programs, Mayawatiji can personally verifying the progress of
formation of committees in addition to conducting the polls with Ballot
Papers. These
programs could be conducted in the name of ‘Grand Conference of
Workers’ (Karyakarthan ka Vishal Mahasabha).
Election Symbols in India
A significant number of Indian voters are illiterate, so
Indian elections use symbols on ballot papers (designed such that the
texts about candidates & party names are secondary). This ensures
that voters to make the choice that they intended to.
Yes!
It is only under the able leadership of our Maha Mayawatji who joined
the Ambedkarite movement when Kanshi Ram Saheb was organizing the
employees under the banner of BAMCEF. Seeing her dedication
to the movement and capabilities, he started encouraging her. But the
senior members could not tolerate it. They began opposing
Saheb arguing, “How can you project a most junior person ignoring
seniors like us? If you continue to project her too much, we will leave
the organization”. Kanshi Ramji replied them sternly saying, “If you are
thinking to leave tomorrow, it is better for you to leave today itself.
Why postpone it?” All these old members, who are mostly from
Maharashtra and Punjab, left the movement even before Saheb launched
BSP. They went out of BAMCEF and formed their own BAMCEF outfit. They
had even got it registered. Today there are several outfits of BAMCEF
and nobody knows how many outfits are there. Our people have not gone
with them. These seniors went alone and remained alone, but the people
and workers have remained with the movement. Nobody got disturbed over
their exit. Do you know why the workers and people did not follow those
old members?
Those were the honest people who were solidly prepared by
Manyawar Kanshi Ram Saheb through cadre camps. Cadrization is the only
way to prepare missionary workers and society. Saheb, with his team of
missionary cadres, was able to create new leadership. He went on to
start DS-4 and finally BSP on April 14, 1984. The workers and society
remained with the movement only because they were prepared through the
means of cadrization. Saheb had rejuvenated the Ambedkarite movement
only by conducting cadres.
As
dreamt by Babasaheb Dr. Ambedkar, Manyawar Kanshi Ram Saheb
launched the political party, namely, Bahujan Samaj Party on April 14,
1984. We along with the able leadership of Ms Mayawatiji , by following
the footsteps of our ancestors and guidance of
Manyawar Kanshi Ram Saheb, were able to form our own government for four
times in Uttar Pradesh in the past. As a result, we were able to
improve the socio-economic condition of our people in Uttar Pradesh. We
were able to secure the constitutional rights of our people. We were
also
able to build memorials, statues and parks in the honor of our
ancestors. Ms Mayawatiji became eligible to become the Prime Minister
with her best governance. This was not tolerated by the casteist, communal and pro-capitalist rulers and as the people
stood solidly behind her they started tampering the EVMs to defeat her.
Also we could not succeed to form our government in other
states. As the result, atrocities against our people are continuing
unabatedly. Exploitation of the poor has not been ended.
Negating the Universal Adult Franchise BJP started Tampering of EVMs: BSP’s failure to form its own
government in other states has helped the BJP to defeat it in Uttar
Pradesh. They found that BSP is strong only in UP and not in other
states and hence they thought that if they could finish BSP in UP, BSP
will die a natural death in all other states. That is how they focused
their entire strength to defeat BSP in UP. However, they could not win
through fair means. They had to resort to fraudulent way of tampering
the electronic voting machines (EVMs) to defeat BSP.
BJP and company had used the EVMs in 2014 itself to win the
General Election. BSP thought that it was the mandate against the
scams-ridden and scandals-tainted rule of Congress. But the election
results of the five states held in March 2017 have exposed the EVM
scandal of BJP. They could not win in Punjab, Uttarkhand, Goa and
Manipur. In Goa and Manipur, Congress party got lead over the BJP. But
BJP leaders have managed the other MLAs form their governments. In
Uttarkhand, it was the internal quarrel of the Congress that gave a lead
to the BJP. In Punjab, the anti-incumbency factor of Akali Dal gave the
victory to Congress. BJP, being the partner of Akali Dal, lost the
election. In all the above four states, they did not tamper with the
EVMs and the results were on the expected lines. But in Uttar Pradesh,
nobody expected that BJP would get such a huge margin of victory. The
senior bureaucrats of UP, who are usually the first to know the results
in advance, were making preparations to welcome the BSP Government. They
were utterly surprised when the results were announced. I, seeing the
trend of results late in the morning, went to the press and exposed the
EVM fraud. Later on, we also launched nation-wide struggle against the
fraud of EVMs and legal battle to get the VVPAT incorporated with EVMs.
Thus, we are confronting the BJP at every step.
When
the BJP says that even in 2019 Lok Sabha elections the same EVMs will
be used and entire EVMs replacement with VVPAT will not be possible
because of the cost of Rs 5000 crore and the paid media conducting
pre-poll and opinion polls always in favour of BJP, it will be the right
thing for BSP cadres to go for requesting the voters to vote in Ballot
papers to save Universal Adult Franchise as guaranteed by our Modern
Constitution and save democracy. Today it is possible with the online
availability of Voters list and all the details to conduct polls with
Ballot Papers.
When Ms Mayawatiji took over the charge of party’s president post, she had faced
toughest time of her life. The old leaders such as Phulsingh Barayya and
Davuram Ratnakar betrayed the movement by playing in the hands of other
parties. But she was not disappointed. She carried ahead the movement all
alone. She always enjoyed her work. She wants the cadres must also do their work with great
joy. She askes “Do not think that success brings us joy. On the other hand it is
the joy that brings us succes. We must carry our struggles with great
celebration and bliss. The present situation may look very critical and
depressing. But we can convert this situation to our advantage by our
determination and hard work. We should never think
that ‘why should I work when I would not be getting any benefit?’ We are
already reaping the benefits of struggles of our ancestors. We must now
work for the benefit of our future generations. If we fail to do our
duty, our children will be forced to become slaves in future.”Napolean
had once said that ” I can face two battalions but not two scribes”.
Now you can see such scribes only in social media such as Facebook,
WhatsApp, Twitter, websites, blogs, SMSes and those who send block

Ms Mayawatiji is Maha Mayawati Ji. She is more than a Prime Minister. She is Noble, an Arahanth directs:
You have to mobilize funds for the above programs and also for the elections on your own.
• Now that we are increasing the pace of our movement in a greater
speed, we must mobilize more funds to achieve greater success. Ours is a
self-respect movement.
Self-respect movement can succeed only with
self-help. We are not taking funds from business houses and corporate
companies. Collecting money through membership is one source for us. Now
we must restart the collection of funds on my birthday every year as we
were doing earlier. With these two sources, we can manage our party

okay, then you must declare your contributions now. (Office-bearers of
