The Samajwadi Party now stands split down the middle with Mulayam Singh Yadav’s cousin Ram Gopal backing Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadav who is locked in a turf war with uncle Shivpal while party leaders blamed “outsider” Amar Singh for the crisis .
Watch this video to know how the country is amused with the feud between the Samajwadi Party’s Chacha-Bhatija.
A Crisis Unfolds
Party supremo Mulayam rushed to Lucknow from Delhi and is expected to hold talks with his son Akhilesh and other leaders in a bid to control the damage.
Samajwadi Party national general secretary Ram Gopal Yadav, who met Akhilesh in Lucknow, said the leadership had committed an unintentional “mistake” by removing Akhilesh as party’s UP president.
He said that “differences” had arisen due to some “misunderstanding” even as he made a veiled attack on Rajya Sabh MP Amar Singh.
The feud had spilled into the open after the Chief Minister stripped Shivpal of key ministerial portfolios on September 13, hours after he was replaced with Shivpal as the party’s state unit chief by his father.
