Samajwadi Party president Akhilesh Yadav on Sunday said his party will return to power in Uttar Pradesh after next year's assembly polls and expressed confidence that the opposition alliance will remain united. Yadav, who was in Rewari for a wedding ceremony, targeted the BJP, saying it is going to lose the assembly polls being held now -- including in West Bengal. Speaking to reporters on the sidelines, Yadav responded to a question about the possibility of contesting the Uttar Pradesh polls in alliance with Congress and said, "INDIA bloc will remain, we will have Congress with us."
"इंडिया गठबंधन रहेगा. कांग्रेस को साथ रखेगें. हमारे यहां सवाल सीट का नही जीत का होगा. उत्तरप्रदेश में 2027 में समाजवादी पार्टी सरकार बनायेगी."

On the women’s reservation issue, he said the women’s quota bill had already been passed, but when the BJP realised that it will not have the numbers, it notified the earlier bill overnight. “BJP calls opposition anti-women. In reality, BJP is anti-women,” Yadav said. “A party that never made a woman its chief and gave the ‘nari’ slogan only when it needed votes now stands exposed,” Yadav said.
