“The SP and SBSP have come together. No there will be no BJP. This time BJP is out” the tweet, carrying pictures of Akhilesh Yadav and Rajbhar meeting, said.
The tweets did not mention if the two parties will fight the upcoming state assembly polls together and what pre-poll understanding, if any, they have reached.
SBSP chief Rajbhar, in his tweet, said that “the SP and SBSP have come together”
He, however, added that his meeting with Akhilesh Yadav was a “courtesy meeting”
“SP and SBSP have come together. The BJP government which ditched Dalits, backwards, minorities and other sections, are left with only last few days” he said.
“Had a courtesy meeting with former CM Akhilesh Yadav” he added in his tweet in Hindi.
