After Ghosi bypoll outcome, hoarding outside SP office taunts Om Prakash Rajbhar

A day after Ghosi bypoll outcome, Samajwadi Party (SP) state headquarters in Lucknow on September 9 witnessed hoarding pasted outside declaring the Suheldev Bharatiya Samaj Party (SBSP) president Om Prakash Rajbhar, who recently switched sides towards National Democratic Alliance (NDA), as ‘spent force’ in the State politics, cautioning all parties about his utility in U.P. electoral dynamics.

“All parties be cautious, Om Prakash Rajbhar is a bujha hua kartush (spent cartridge shell),” reads the hoarding containing photo of Mr. Rajbhar. It is being displayed by Asutosh Singh, former State secretary, Samajwadi Yuvjan Sabha, a youth wing of the SP.

Earlier on Friday, SP chief Akhilesh Yadav also said, “In this, there is one MLA who won, but the losers are future Minister of many parties,” making an indirect reference to Mr. Rajbhar.
