Samajwadi Party family feud gives way to BJP in Uttar Pradesh

ETAWAH: Two large cutouts of Mulayam Singh Yadav, ordered afresh, were installed on the roof of SP office in Netaji’s home borough, Etawah, on Sunday. “Naa Netaji hatenge yahan se, naa hum,” says Sunil Yadav, still the district chief despite being sacked by Ram Gopal Yadav.

About 80 km away, Shivpal Yadav’s photo — after it was removed last week — is missing from the party office in Firozabad. A new district chief Ram Sewak Yadav is already in charge here. Post-Yadav family feud, Ram Gopal had appointed new district chiefs in the key Yadav strongholds of Firozabad, Mainpuri, Kannauj and Etawah.
