Karhal Assembly Seat: After registering a spectacular victory in Uttar Pradesh, Samajwadi Party President Akhilesh Yadav will now leave the post of Leader of Opposition in the Assembly and focus on central politics. In this Lok Sabha election, the Samajwadi Party has won 37 Lok Sabha seats in UP.
After this, Akhilesh Yadav held a meeting with all the winning MPs at the party headquarters in Lucknow today to decide on his next step. A big update has come out on whether Akhilesh Yadav will lead the opposition in state politics or head to Delhi.
Akhilesh Yadav will leave Karahal seat: Sources
According to information received from sources, Akhilesh Yadav may leave Karahal assembly seat (Mainpuri) and will focus on central politics for now. Samajwadi Party has performed its best ever in the Lok Sabha elections. After Akhilesh Yadav leaves the seat, Tej Pratap Yadav will be a strong contender. Tej Pratap has earlier campaigned in Mainpuri with Mulayam Singh and in this election with Dimple Yadav. He was a former MP from Mainpuri.
Today at the party headquarters, all the new MPs also made a strategy on how they will work in their respective areas as a strong opposition and how they will take the public issues from the streets to the MPs. In this meeting, a decision can also be taken on the representation of Akhilesh Yadav's party in the Lok Sabha. Akhilesh Yadav has won the Lok Sabha elections from Kannauj seat this time.
During the meeting, after meeting all the winning MPs of the Samajwadi Party, Akhilesh Yadav said that everyone worked in such extreme heat, while there have been two MPs in the Bharatiya Janata Party government, one of whom got the MP certificate and the other did not get the MP certificate. I congratulate everyone.
Who will hold the post of Leader of Opposition in UP?
In such a situation, the big question is who will take over the post of Leader of Opposition in UP after Akhilesh Yadav's entry into Delhi politics. In such a situation, speculations are being made that Shivpal Yadav can be made the leader of the legislative party. Since Shivpal is now the most senior member in the legislature, it is believed that he can be given the post of Leader of Opposition. At present, Akhilesh Yadav will take the final decision in this regard.
