UP Elections 2022: Bhim Army Chief Chandrashekhar Azad dismisses alliance with SP

On Saturday, Bhim Army chief Chandrashekhar Azad said an alliance with Akhilesh Yadav's Samajwadi Party would be impossible since the former Uttar Pradesh chief minister only wanted a Dalit vote bank, not a Dalit leader. Azad, a Dalit-Bahujan rights activist, said he attempted for over a month to establish an alliance with the Samajwadi Party but it didn't work out, accusing Akhilesh Yadav of humiliating the Bahujan Samaj people.
