But Maya’s party, unlike others, won’t name its donors saying small ones opened heart and purse
In the first two years after it came to power in UP in 2007, the Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) raised Rs 251 crore. And in 2008-09, the party’s income went up from Rs 69 crore to Rs 182 crore — a jump of 161 per cent, which is the highest for any political party in India.
Releasing these figures here on Friday, the Association of Democratic Reforms (ADR) said that in comparison, the income of the Congress went up by 125 per cent in the same period of 2008-09 — from Rs 220 crore to Rs 496 crore.
However, the Indian National Congress’s aggregate income of Rs 717.69 crore was the highest among all the parties surveyed. The aggregate income of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) was Rs 343 crore and of the CPM Rs 122.53 crore, said the ADR, which is running a campaign called, National Election Watch, to analyse the status of political parties and give suggestions for conducting fair elections.
