Lucknow: Samajwadi Party Chief Akhilesh Yadav hit out at the Congress by saying that the grand old party was creating false propaganda and unnecessary confusion in the mind of the voters by claiming to not contest seven Lok Sabha seats in Uttar Pradesh in the upcoming Lok Sabha elections.
The Samajwadi Party supremo added that the 'Mahagathbandhan' stitched by his party and the BSP was good enough to defeat the Bharatiya Janata Party in the Hindi heartland state. The Samajwadi party chief's comments come after Mayawati lashed out at the Congress over the same issue.
The Congress party had earlier declared that they would not be contesting all the 80 seats in Uttar Pradesh. To come to even terms with their potential allies in the politically crucial state of Uttar Pradesh, the Congress on Sunday announced that it will leave more than a dozen Lok Sabha seats for other parties, including seven seats for the SP, BSP and RLD alliance in the state.
Apart from this, the grand old party of India also announced that it will leave two seats for the Apna Dal, and entered into an electoral agreement with the lesser known Jan Adhikar Party.
"The Congress is leaving seven Lok Sabha seats in the state for the SP, BSP and RLD alliance. These include Mainpuri, Kannauj and Firozabad. Apart from this, the party will not field any candidate on seats from where BSP chief Mayawati, RLD chief Ajit Singh and his son Jayant Chaudhary are likely to contest or may contest," said Raj Babbar.
