"We are not convinced with Sushma Swaraj's speech. Law should have been kept in mind with humanity," said Mayawati.

Earlier in the day, Congress president Sonia Gandhi had criticized Swaraj over her clarification on the Lalit Modi controversy, saying she is an expert at 'theatrics'.

Swaraj had yesterday insisted that she had made "no request or recommendation" to the UK Government for Lalit Modi's travel documents but had left the decision to Britain.

She also said that she had not helped Lalit Modi but his cancer-stricken wife.
