Mayawati made the remarks just a day after PM Modi said at a rally that the Samajwadi Party and Congress have used the BSP chief and she has now realized this fact. The prime minister had said that though BSP chief was openly slamming the Congress, the SP is not saying anything about the grand old party.

PM Modi said that SP and Congress did not reveal their intentions to Mayawati and misled her by promising to make her the PM.  Referring to Congress leader Priyanka Gandhi sharing the stage with SP leaders in Amethi, PM Modi said that truth is out in the open for everyone to see. 

Meanwhile, SP chief Akhilesh Yadav on Sunday said that he would like to see a woman become the next prime minister of India. Talking to media, Akhilesh said that women form about 50% population of the country and it would be good to see a woman as the new prime minister of the country after May 23.
