Top Ten: Agitated with SP-Congress alliance, Mulayam asks supporters to contest as independent

Agitated with the Samajwadi Party-Congress alliance for Uttar Pradesh Assembly elections, SP patriarch Mulayam Singh has asked his supporters and aspiring candidates to contest as independent or on Lok Dal against the Congress.

According to sources, Mulayam has even decided to campaign against Congress for SP candidates who were denied tickets by the party president and CM Akhilesh Yadav.

SP founder feels that Rahul Gandhi, who had ‘praised’ Mayawati during a SP-Congress joint press conference in Lucknow, may join hands with the BSP after the elections.

Voicing displeasure over the alliance, Mulayam on Sunday has asked his supporters “to raise an aggressive movement against” the party’s alliance with the Congress.

This alliance was made against my wish. The Samajwadi Party was in a position to form the government on its own. But Akhilesh Yadavji has taken a wrong decision,” the party patriarch told the media.
