After 'Bitter Experience', Akhilesh Yadav Says No Pact With BSP, Cong for 2022 Polls; Has Message for BJP
News 18Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav, who started his campaign with the Vijay Rath Yatra from Kanpur on October 12, spoke to CNN News18 at the Hamirpur Circuit House about his “big” agenda for poll-bound Uttar Pradesh. Reminiscing about his experience in alliance politics, the former chief minister asserted that the Samajwadi Party will not have any tie-up with “bigger parties”. “I don’t think SP will have any alliance with Congress or BSP.” He also said the ruling “BJP knows SP is the real challenge” and therefore it is trying to create false perception about Congress increasing strength in Uttar Pradesh. Priyanka Gandhi Vadra’s detention, and then allowing Rahul Gandhi and her to visit Lakhimpur Kheri, don’t you think BJP is purposely giving projection to the Congress?
