Samajwadi Party rift deepens, just political differences or a clash of purported egos?

Who knew the usual family politics would turn into a purported clash of egos paving the way for upmanship in the Samajwadi Party. Currently Samajwadi party is facing a full blown revolt from the ranks, under its president Mulayam Singh Yadav, who is being questioned by the party newbies.

This political turmoil has been brewing from the last two years between uncle Shivpal Yadav and nephew Akhilesh Yadav but was somehow kept under wraps.

But the rift has become quite apparent with squabbling, Shivpal’s mic snatching and Akhilesh’s tears making the confrontation an evident thing.
