Akhilesh Yadav ‘rejects’ Owaisi’s offer, says ‘existing alliance will continue’

The electoral battle in UP is becoming increasingly interesting. SP supremo Akhilesh Yadav has ruled out the possibility of an alliance with the AIMIM. He has stated unequivocally that the alliance which already existed—and which defeated the BJP—will continue. The Samajwadi Party will work to carry that same alliance forward. The question remains: is the SP planning to contest the 2027 elections alone?
