A worrying situation has arisen for Congress
After the current list of SP, on one hand the discussion has started as to whom BSP will field as its candidate from Ghazipur, while on the other hand a worrying situation has arisen for Congress. It is believed that Congress is staking claim on Pratapgarh Lok Sabha seat of the state. SP has released this list at a time when on the question of joining the Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra led by Rahul Gandhi, SP chief Akhilesh Yadav had said that the seat distribution should be finalized first.
SP gave this message through the list
It has also become clear from this list of SP that Rashtriya Lok Dal led by Jayant Chaudhary is no longer in alliance with SP. Last month, on January 19, when Akhilesh and Jayant had announced the alliance by sharing pictures, it was being said that SP had given the Muzaffarnagar Lok Sabha seat to RLD. However, now that SP has declared Harendra Malik as its candidate, there is no doubt left about the alliance.
