In UP, the Samajwadi Party (SP) and the Pragatisheel Samajwadi Party (PSP) will contest together in the state assembly elections. Akhilesh Yadav announced on Thursday. The two leaders discussed the issue behind closed doors for close to 40 minutes. “There was a meeting with the National President of PSP (Pragatisheel Samajwadi Party) and the matter of alliance was settled. The policy of taking regional parties along is continuously strengthening the SP and leading the SP and other allies to a historic victory,” the SP leader tweeted.
Earlier in November, Shivpal Yadav said that his party was ready for an alliance with the SP to stop the BJP from winning, but insisted that Akhilesh Yadav accepted his conditions for the pact, Shivpal Yadav had parted ways with the SP and formed his own political party in 2018 and also contested separately in the 2019 parliamentary elections in the country.
