Lucknow, Aug 9 (PTI) Pragatisheel Samajwadi Party (Lohia) national president Shivpal Singh Yadav’s son Aditya Yadav was on Tuesday appointed the party’s state chief.
In the letter of Aditya Yadav’s appointment shared on Twitter, the party expressed hope that its state executive would be formed soon.
Shivpal Singh Yadav floated the Pragatisheel Samajwadi Party (Lohia) in 2018 following a rift with his nephew and Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav.
However, ahead of the 2022 assembly elections, they came together and Shivpal Yadav contested from his traditional Jaswantnagar seat in Etawah on SP symbol and got elected.
But the rift between the two came to the fore during the Presidential election after which the Samajwadi Party issued a letter stating that Shivpal Singh Yadav was free to go anywhere. PTI SAB NSD
