This follows the BSP's poor election performance. Siddharth, a former Rajya Sabha MP, was expelled alongside Nitin Singh, highlighting ongoing internal strife within the party.

BSP leader Mayawati has expelled Ashok Siddharth, her nephew's father-in-law, from the party over allegations of factionalism and anti-party activities. Siddharth's expulsion highlights the growing internal tensions within the party.

Anand, Mayawati's nephew and the BSP's national coordinator, had earlier been dismissed but was later reinstated as her political heir. The decision marks another twist in the party's leadership saga.
