"Yogi Adityanath is the chief minister of 24 crore population in Uttar Pradesh. Anyone can meet him. Recently, he also met Akhilesh Yadav," UP Deputy CM Shivpal Yadav said.
A day after Pragatisheel Samajwadi Party president Shivpal Singh Yadav called on Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath amid the speculations that the former is set to end his alliance with his nephew and Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav, newly-elected Uttar Pradesh Deputy Chief Minister Keshav Prasad Maurya on Thursday said that Adityanath is the chief minister of 24 crore population of Uttar Pradesh and can meet anyone.
"Yogi Adityanath is the chief minister of 24 crore population in Uttar Pradesh. Anyone can meet him. Recently, he also met Akhilesh Yadav," UP Deputy CM told ANI.
Mr Shivpal is miffed with the Samajwadi Party chief for not inviting him for a meeting of all the SP legislators. It seems Akhilesh Yadav's "reunion" with uncle Shivpal Yadav was apparently short-lived. Days after the Samajwadi Party lost the Uttar Pradesh election, speculations are rife that Shivpal Yadav is set to end his alliance with Akhilesh Yadav.
"I was not invited to the party meeting. I waited for two days and cancelled all my programs for this meeting but I wasn't invited. I am an MLA from Samajwadi Party but still not invited," Mr Shivpal told ANI.
