New Delhi: The UP government has sacked over 145 government lawyers.

The move is seen as UP Chief Minister Mayawati's move to go back to the Dalit agenda.

Most of the lawyers who have been removed are close to BSP National Secretary SC Mishra.

SC Mishra is the BSP's Brahmin face, and had brought in a sizeable number of his supporters to the BSP fold before the state election.

The move to sack his supporters has been taken, hardly a week after Mishra was appointed head of the BSP legal cell.

Analysts say its a move by Mayawati to trim the clout of upper castes in BSP, which draws most of its support from Dalits.

What's your reaction?
