Samajwadi Party announces 11 more candidates for LS polls, includes seats sought by Cong
The list includes seats like Bahraich, Gonda, Shahjahanpur, Pratapgarh which the Congress had been demanding -- a clear indication that SP is now in no mood to wait further for seat-sharing talks, political observers believe.
In a significant development, the SP has fielded Afzal Ansari, brother of Mukhtar Ansari from Ghazipur.
The party has named Harendra Malik from Muzaffarnagar; Neeraj Maurya from Aonla; Rajesh Kashyap from Shahjahanpur; Usha Varma from Hardoi; Rampal Rajvanshi from Misrikh; RK Chaudhary from Mohanlalganj; SP Singh Patel from Pratapgarh, Ramesh Gautam from Bahraich; Shreya Varma from Gonda, and Virendra Singh from Chandauli.
