The Congress has intensified efforts to reach out to Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) chief Mayawati (pictured). On Thursday, senior Haryana Congress leader Karan Singh Dalal wrote to her to review her party's alliance with the Indian National Lok Dal (INLD) in the state. Dalal alleged INLD leader Abhay Singh Chautala was in "cahoots" with the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). The five-time legislator wrote that Chautala had proposed to BJP members in the Assembly to move a resolution to suspend him to prevent him from speaking on issues concerning the poor. Dalal was suspended from the Haryana Assembly on Tuesday
