Kanpur: Uttar Pradesh Governor Vishnu Kant Shastri on November 8 said the (Bharatiya
Janata Party) BJP-BSP (Bahujan Samaj Party) government in the state still enjoys a
majority as no ruling combine legislators had given him letters of withdrawal of
support.
Shastri told reporters in Kanpur that though some independent and BJP legislators and
a BSP MLA had met him to express their grievances against the Mayawati-led
government, no one had so far given him in writing that they were withdrawing support
to it.
When asked about the alleged remark of Samajwadi Party chief Mulayam Singh Yadav that
he was acting as an "agent of BJP", the Governor refused to comment.
