Lok Manch president Amar Singh on Thursday termed Samajwadi Party as a “gang of a family”. The expelled SP leader on Thursday concluded his 450 km yatra in Gorakhpur for a separate “Poorvanchal” state in Uttar Pradesh.
Addressing a rally in Gorakhpur, Mr Singh said, “Samajwadi Party in place of being a political party is a gang of family and Yadavs in the eastern UP never benefited because of this gang of a family.”
Actor Sanjay Dutt, Lok Sabha MP Jaya Prada and Bhojpuri filmstar Manoj Tiwari attended the rally in Gorakhpur. Mr Singh asserted that there are too many leaders with him who could become an MLA or an MP. “Those who always ask how many MLAs and MPs are with me can now see that a large number of people who can become members of Parliament and legislature are now standing with me,” claimed Mr Singh.
The expelled SP leader also said that a separate Poorvanchal state is now the prime objective of his life and for this reason he completed the 450 km yatra, which began from Allahabad, despite poor health.
