As Akhilesh Yadav Watched, Candidate Was A Crying Mess. No One Knows Why | Read

The campaign for the Uttar Pradesh election has never been short on histrionics but one candidate was reduced to a blubbering mess. Samajwadi Party candidate PD Tiwari had to be led off the stage by his supporters, in the presence of his party boss, Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadav. Mr Tiwari is contesting from the Barhaj seat in Deoria in eastern Uttar Pradesh, which will vote on Saturday. His supporters say he was "disturbed" because he was facing dissent within the party.
