He called on his party members at the meet to realise their responsibilities ahead of Lok Sabha bypolls in Gorakhpur and Phulpur seats vacated by Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath and his deputy Keshav Prasad Maurya.
“Beware of ‘banawti’ (fake) Samajwadi. They have tried to stop the Samajwadi movement many times in the past. They succeeded in one conspiracy as a result of which we could not form government in the state,” he said in a veiled attack on his uncle and SP leader Shivpal Yadav and his supporters.

“I want to say that ‘netaji’ (Mulayam) is my father and his blessings will always be with me. We will take forward this ‘andolan’ (movement),” he said, according to media reports indicate.
