Father-son feud : Akhilesh Yadav’s camp is “unconstitutional”

Asserting that he remains Samajwadi Party president, Mulayam Singh Yadav told the Election Commission that the convention called by Akhilesh Yadav camp was “unconstitutional” and that the party’s electoral symbol of ‘cycle’ should remain with his camp.

Accompanied by his loyalists Amar Singh and Shivpal Singh Yadav, Mulayam also contested the affidavits of party leaders submitted by the party faction owing allegiance to his son and Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister, alleging they were forged and asked the EC to get them verified.
