Lucknow: The confusion over who would get the Samajwadi Party symbol of ‘cycle’ or whether it would be frozen for time being has delayed the announcement of a pre-poll pact between Congress and SP at least till Monday.The two parties are ready with the blueprint and are likely to reveal their master plan for the coming Assembly polls once the Election Commission pronounces its decision on the SP symbol.
Interestingly, this is the first time that Priyanka Gandhi Vadra is actively taking interest in UP politics and playing a key role in thrashing out an alliance for gaining power in the state.Sources confirmed that an understanding between the two parties has been reached as Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadav’s wife Dimple Yadav initiated talks on her husband’s behalf.It is being said that both Priyanka and Dimple are set to play major roles in facilitating the alliance to get a majority in the UP Assembly.(UNI)
