She also suggested that Assange needs to be admitted in a mental asylum and that she could do him a favour by giving a refuge in the mental asylum in Agra if there was no place in the hospitals in the UK. Mayawati also expressed her anger on some of the media reports that were based on the WikiLeaks about party’s general secretary Satish Chandra Mishra and cabinet secretary Shashank Shekhar Singh. She said the reports were a work of fiction, and were designed to break the unity of the BSP and malign her government.

"My government will give a rise in the status and position of party’s trusted lieutenants Satish Chandra Mishra and Shashank Shekhar," said Mayawati. BSP general secretary S C Mishra has also rubbished these reports and called it completely baseless. "Reports on WikiLeaks cables are absolutely false. There is no truth in the controversy. I did not meet an US dignitary in 2007. I will file a legal notice and pursue the case till it comes to a logical end," said S C Mishra in an interview to TV news channel. The cable has revealed that Mishra has acknowledged Mayawati's penchant for personal corruption and her strong authoritarian streak.
