NEW DELHI: A significant sub-plot in Uttar Pradesh CM Akhilesh Yadav’s defiance of Samajwadi Party founder and his father Mulayam Singh Yadav appears to be a bid to stall the political debut of Aparna Yadav, the younger “bahu” of the Yadav family.

Aparna Yadav is a declared SP candidate from Lucknow Cantt seat for the assembly elections, and the political feud in the Yadav clan is at least partly traced to the ambitions of the younger daughter-in-law who is married to Prateek Yadav, son of Mulayam’s second wife Sadhna Gupta. SP had last year announced Aparna’s candidature and she has been active as a social activist and this, with the implied higher profile, has not gone well with the CM. The Akhilesh camp feels the injection of another “family” factor in the SP equation is an unnecessary distraction from the CM’s position as Mulayam’s political successor.
