Indore: Extending its support to Sadhvi Pragya Singh Thakur, arrested in connection with the Malegaon blasts case, Uma Bharati's Bharatiya Janshakti Party (BJS) today offered her a party ticket to contest the upcoming assembly elections in Madhya Pradesh.

"If she (Pragya) wishes, our party will field her from any seat in Madhya Pradesh against the BJP," BJS National Secretary Inder Prajapat told reporters here.

"We had a discussion with Sadhvi Pragya's lawyer in this regard and if she agrees then the party would consider fielding her against any powerful leader of the BJP," he said.

Strongly defending Sadhvi, Prajapat said that she was "totally innocent" and it was a conspiracy to frame her with political motives and to defame the saint community.

"We hope that people's court will ultimately acquit her in the case," he said.

The BJS has also offered Thakur legal aid, he said, adding Uma Bharati has already termed the sadhvi's arrest as a "conspiracy" and demanded a high-level probe on the issue.

Pragya was arrested in connection with the September 29 Malegaon blasts and is in the custody of Maharashtra Anti-Terrorist Squad till November three.
