Samajwadi Party (SP) President Akhilesh Yadav has been attacked by his uncle and Pragatisheel Samajwadi Party (PrSP) chief Shivpal Yadav. Expressing his pain, he has said that the one who taught him to walk kept trampling him. On the occasion of Eid, before Shivpal Yadav, Azam Khan has also targeted Akhilesh with the help of his son’s Twitter handle.
Shivpal Yadav said in a tweet on Tuesday that he tried to satisfy (Akhilesh Yadav) by going to the lowest point of his respect. Shivpal wrote, “Going to the lowest point of my respect, I tried to satisfy him! Despite this, if I am angry, to what extent he must have hurt the heart! We taught him to walk.. and he went on trampling us.
I tried to satisfy him by going to the lowest point of my respect!
Despite this, if I am angry, to what extent he must have hurt the heart!We taught him to walk..
And he went on trampling us.
Once again, Eid Mubarak with the immense power of restructuring, confidence and cooperation of all.— Shivpal Singh Yadav (@shivpalsinghyad) May 3, 2022
The feud between Akhilesh and Shivpal Yadav over Mulayam Singh Yadav’s legacy is not new. In 2017 itself, their paths parted. Shivpal Yadav formed his new party. But before the 2022 assembly elections, Shivpal agreed to an agreement with the nephew at the behest of elder brother Mulayam Singh Yadav. Shivpal, who was preparing to contest on more than 100 seats, was given only one seat by the nephew and that too with the condition of contesting on the cycle symbol. Shivpal has been feeling humiliated ever since.
After the defeat of SP in the elections, the distance between Akhilesh and Shivpal increased once again. Shivpal Yadav has raised the flag of rebellion, then Akhilesh is asking him to leave soon. There is speculation that Shivpal Yadav may form a new front with Azam Khan. According to political experts, both the leaders can spoil the MY equation of SP. Both are angry with Akhilesh’s attitude and together they can avenge their alleged humiliation and neglect.
