Many Muslim leaders join PSPL

Wednesday, 23 January 2019 | PNS | Lucknow

Pragatisheel Samajwadi Party Lohia (PSPL) founder Shivpal Singh Yadav on Tuesday claimed that the 'unholy' alliance between the BSP and SP would not be accepted by the people as leaders of both parties ditched their partners and leaders for vested political interests.

Meanwhile on Tuesday, several senior political leaders, including former Rajya Sabha member Mohammad Adeeb, joined the PSPL.

Addressing media persons during the joining of several party leaders in Lucknow on Tuesday, Shivpal said that BSP chief Mayawati ditched her rakhi brothers -- Narendra Modi and Lalji Tandon while Akhilesh Yadav backstabbed his father and uncle and joined hands for vested political interests. “This alliance is a 'thugbandhan' to confuse the people and to benefit the BJP," Shivpal alleged.

The PSPL chief added that talks were underway with secular parties, including the Congress, and new entrant Mohammad Adeeb had been authorised to initiate talks with those parties on behalf of the PSPL.

Claiming that his party was gearing up for 2019 Lok Sabha polls and would contest with full vigour, Shivpal said that a committee had been set up to identify potential candidates for the polls with winability as the priority.

The PSPL chief also criticised the BJP for failing to solve people's problem and claimed that now voters had decided to show them the doors in the elections. "The BJP will be ousted from the Centre in 2019 and from UP in 2022," he said.

On Tuesday, several Muslim leaders joined the PSPL in presence of Shivpal Yadav and others. They included former RS member and ex-president of AMU Students' Union Mohammad Adeeb, Sunni Ulema Council general secretary Haji Mohammad Salim, former Haj committee member Arshad Mia and former MLA from Azamgarh Hafiz Irshad.
