Janata Dal-United on Friday targeted ally Bharatiya Janata Party in poll-bound Uttar Pradesh saying the saffron party like several of its political rivals had succumbed to the contagion of corruption.

"Like the Bahujan Samaj Party, Samajwadi Party and Congress, BJP has also become corrupt now," JD-U chief Sharad Yadav told mediapersons in Agra.

Yadav said while the BSP has done nothing except indulging in loot in UP, the Congress has done the same at the Centre and promised that his party will change the face of the state if voted to power.

Yadav said his party has so far announced nominees for 90-95 out of 403 assembly seats in Uttar Pradesh and will announce candidates for the rest of the constituencies after a meeting in Lucknow on January 10.
