VARANASI: Upset over the defeat of Samajwadi Party candidates in Azamgarh and Rampur Lok Sabha bypolls, SP alliance partner Suheldev Bharatiya Samaj Party (SBSP) chief Om Prakash Rajbhar on Tuesday questioned the absence of SP chief Akhilesh Yadav from campaigning on ground. Rajbhar himself campaigned extensively for the SP candidate, Dharmendra Yadav, in Azamgarh.
"Battles can't be fought from air-conditioned rooms. The commander should lead the force from the front. SP chief should take lessons from his father," said Rajbhar while explaining the reasons to TOI for the SP' defeat in its fortresses.
