According to reports, Udayveer singh’s letter to Mulayam read “As this information came out in the open that you want Akhilesh to become the CM, conspiracies were hatched within the family.
Although Akhilesh’s step-mother herself remained behind the scenes, Shivpal came forward as her political face and started contacting senior party leaders to stop this.”
Among the gap in the Yadav family deepening with each passing day, senior party leader Akhilesh met him to discuss the way forward.
“We have met UP CM toady around 4.30 and we told the same thing to Mulayam ji. We requested that the controversy should end as the assembly polls are just ahead,” said party leader Beni Prasad Verma. On Friday, Akhilesh had left out a crucial party meeting convened by state unit chief and his uncle Shivpal SinghYadav.

Meeting was called to discuss the upcoming assemble election and to prepare for the silver jubilee function of the ruling party scheduled for November 5.
