UP polls: Once Mulayam Singh's PSO, BJP's SP Baghel to challenge Akhilesh Yadav in Karhal

India Today  

The Bharatiya Janata Party has decided to field Union minister Satya Pal Singh Baghel from Karhal constituency against Samajwadi Party president Akhilesh Yadav in the Uttar Pradesh Assembly election. A five-time MP and a former officer in the UP Police, Baghel was once the personal security officer of Samajwadi Party supremo Mulayam Singh Yadav. By fielding Baghel against Akhilesh Yadav, the BJP is signalling to the crucial non-Jatav voters that even on a general seat, the party’s candidate is a Scheduled Caste. There was a time when anyone wanting to meet Mulayam Singh Yadav had to go through Baghel.” It was in 1998 when Baghel bid the UP Police service farewell and took the political plunge by joining the Samajwadi Party.
