Mainpuri Lok Sabha by-election may be the beginning of a new chapter for SP. The way Akhilesh touched Shivpal’s feet on the stage on Monday and Shivpal made a poignant statement, it has deep implications. He said, learned a lot by being with Netaji. Never disappointed him. Will not disappoint even Akhilesh.
This appeal of Shivpal is compulsion as well as a strategy to re-engage the workers. In such a situation, the important question is that how effective will this call of Shivpal be on SP President Akhilesh? Because the litmus test to melt the frozen ice on the relationship will not be in the by-elections but in the Lok Sabha general elections.

There was a rift in relations between Akhilesh and Shivpal in 2016. Shivpal formed the Progressive Samajwadi Party. Tried to portray himself as the real heir of Mulayam Singh’s legacy. Prepared to contest the assembly elections. Made you feel your power. After three rounds of the yatra, Mulayam intervened and the yatra was suspended.
Shivpal was confident that he himself and his special people would contest the elections on the SP ticket. But Akhilesh only gave him the ticket. All the companions of Shivpal went to the other party after being accused of cheating. Time passed Angered by not being invited to the Legislature Party meeting, Shivpal announced ending all relations with Akhilesh.
What is seen in Mainpuri is eyewash or reality
Political experts say that the statement given on Monday has proved that Shivpal has given up on Akhilesh. Shivpal’s age is also the main reason for this. He is not in a position to start politics afresh. On the other hand, son Aditya and colleagues who do not leave their side in adverse circumstances also have a career. Now it has to be seen whether what is being seen in Mainpuri is just an eyewash or reality.
