Akhilesh Yadav Rules Out Alliance with Chandrashekhar Azad Ahead of UP 2027 Elections
Ahead of the 2027 Uttar Pradesh Assembly elections, Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav has ruled out an alliance with Chandrashekhar Azad's Azad Samaj Party, asserting his party can win independently. Azad had proposed uniting opposition forces against the BJP with equal representation. Yadav also indirectly criticized AIMIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi, using a kite metaphor to suggest some politicians rise only with external backing. Alliance talks among opposition parties remain ongoing as election preparations intensify.
