“Instead of fighting us fairly, they are making absurd remarks against us and conspiring with the help of some casteist and anti-Dalit TV channels. I will make Akash join the BSP movement and give him a chance to learn,” she told reporters.Her comments follow reports in a section of the media that her nephew would be her heir apparent.
