UNCertAINty over SP-CoNg ALLIANCe
There is uncertainty over Congress’ alliance with Akhilesh Yadav. Since the majority of SP MLAs have now joined hands with Akhilesh, he will have to accommodate them and may not have many seats to spare for the Congress or for the Rashtriya Lok Dal. However, Sheila Dikshit will not contest the Uttar Pradesh elections even if Congress retains her as the Chief Ministerial candidate of the party for want of alliance. She has conveyed her decision to the party high command.
