Samajwadi Party and Congress Discuss Seat-Sharing Ahead of 2027 Uttar Pradesh Elections
The Samajwadi Party and Congress are preparing committees to finalize seat-sharing for the 2027 Uttar Pradesh elections, with winnability and seat allocation as key considerations.

Additionally, a political disagreement has surfaced over Swami Prasad Maurya's potential inclusion in the alliance, with Congress engaging him despite opposition from Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav. These developments reflect ongoing negotiations and strategic positioning ahead of the polls.
