The second option is the correctly matched pair. Kanshi Ram founded the BSP, or the Bahujan Samaj Party, in 1984. Kanshi Ram was an Indian politician who worked for the upliftment and the political mobilisation of the marginalised sections of society, including the untouchables. He is also known as Bahujan Nayak or Manyavar. The BSP is a national party in India, and Mayawati, a student of Kanshi Ram, is the leader of the party at present times. The party works for the marginalised sections of society and prefers them over others. It includes the scheduled castes (SCs), the scheduled tribes (STs) and the other backward classes or OBCs.
