Akhilesh Yadav Draws Up Madhya Pradesh List After "Waiting For Congress" | Read

Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav is likely to follow the example of Mayawati and cut the Congress out of any possible alliance in the coming assembly elections in Madhya Pradesh. The Congress, he said, has made them "wait too long" and they will hold talks with BSP. The remark is seen as an indication that the Samajwadi chief will forge yet another electoral understanding with Mayawati - the kind that led to a shock defeat for the BJP in a string of by-elections in Uttar Pradesh earlier this year. This evening, the Samajwadi Party named six candidates for Madhya Pradesh.
