NDTV
During the last few days, Akhilesh Yadav has publicly expressed his unhappiness with the Congress over the failure to arrive at a seat-sharing arrangement in Madhya Pradesh and had also referred to UPCC chief Ajay Rai as a "chirkut" (low-level) leader.
A banner describing Rahul Gandhi as the '2024 Prime Minister' appeared outside the Congress party office in Lucknow, days after the Samajwadi Party office put up a similar poster calling its party chief Akhilesh Yadav India's 'future Prime Minister'.
The Congress banner also described its state president Ajay Rai as Chief Minister of Uttar Pradesh in 2027.
Responding to the poster, Samajwadi Party (SP) state spokesperson Fakhrul Hasan 'Chand' who had put up Akhilesh Yadav's poster said it was their party which was fighting the battle of backwards, Dalits and minorities, so it did not matter how many posters the Congress put up as people wanted Yadav as the Prime Minister.
