Mulayam also sent a letter to Rajya Sabha Chairman Hamid Ansari urging him to derecognise Ram Gopal as the SP’s leader in the House, following his expulsion from the party. He asked Ansari to shift Ram Gopal’s seat to the back benches.
Sources in the Rajya Sabha Secretariat, however, ruled out any immediate action on the issue.
Meanwhile, Ram Gopal urged the Election Commission to take an early decision on the party symbol as the nomination process for the assembly elections will begin from January 17. Ram Gopal was accompanied by party MPs Naresh Agarwal and Neeraj Shekhar.
Mulayam also contested the affidavits of party leaders submitted by the Akhilesh camp, alleging that they were forged, and asked the EC to get them verified.
