Samajwadi Party supremo Mulayam Singh Yadav on Thursday claimed that the political feud in Yadav family will be resolved after a face to face meeting with UP Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadav. Mulayam, who reached Lucknow earlier in the day, confirmed that after all the rapid shuffle in the party, Shivpal Yadav will continue to be the Uttar Pradesh SP chief.
Meanwhile, Shivpal Yadav said that he did not complain when he was removed from the post of state party chief in 2011 to make way for Akhilesh. “I will make sure that I discharge my duties responsibly.”
Akhilesh Yadav, son of Mulayam Singh Yadav, had kicked the hornet’s nest by taking away key portfolios from his uncle Shivpal Yadav, following which his father Mulayam removed him from the position of state party chief.
Let’s have a look at who said what in the ongoing family saga:
Mulayam Singh Yadav:
#Shivpal Yadav will continue to be state head
#Shivpal is not angry he is a simple man #Will talk face to face with chief minister
#Will soon resolve the family rift
#SP supremo and Ramgopal will lead the meeting
Shivpal Yadav:
#No one is the party has power to disregard Netaji’s (Mulayam) word
#Will responsibly discharge my duties as state party chief
#Will meet CM tomorrow
#Was removed from the position of state chief in 2011 but I didn’t object
#There is no feud, everyone is together
Ramgopal Yadav:
#A person who is not ‘Samajwadi’ (Socialist) how can he be ‘Mulayamvadi’
#CM should accept Shivpal as state party chief
#This does not make Akhilesh weak
Mayawati:
#Mulayam Singh Yadav should retire from politics
