In a surprise move, Uttar Pradesh unit of Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) made Swati Singh, the wife of expelled party leader Dayashankar Singh, the president of the party's women's wing on Friday.
Dayashankar, former Uttar Pradesh BJP vice-president, was expelled by the party after his comments on the BSP supremo caused a nationwide controversy.
Swati, who had led a campaign against Mayawati and other leaders of her party for the "unsavoury" slogans against her minor daughter during a Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) dharna in Lucknow, was made the president of the state BJP Mahila Morcha.
