Samajwadi Party (SP), a Uttar Pradesh centric party’s assertion to contest assembly elections in Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh and Rajasthan, annoyed the Uttar Pradesh Congress leaders bringing the fault lines in the State to the fore.
Speaking with The Hindu Anil Yadav, U.P. Congress organisational Secretary said the grand-old-party is also preparing on all the 80 Lok Sabha seats in U.P., adding it is the collective responsibility of all Indian National Developmental Inclusive Alliance (INDIA) block partners to show maturity in view of the enormous challenge the opposition faces in U.P., and entire Hindi belt with ‘narrow considerations’ not harm the larger motive of unseating the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) from the Centre.
“Where is the organisational structure of the SP in these three-poll bound Hindi belt States — M.P., Chhattisgarh and Rajasthan — apart from a small area adjoining U.P. We believe it is the collective responsibility of all (INDIA block) parties to help each other and come out of ‘narrow considerations’, in a bid to defeat the BJP,” he said.
