The unease in the Samajwadi Party following the widening rift between two senior leaders flared up with senior party leader Amar Singh virtually threatening to quit the outfit if its chief Mulayam Singh Yadav did not rein in Azam Khan, who showed no signs of piping down.
Yadav on his part ticked off Khan saying his behaviour was “unfair”. “He (Khan) has been continuously speaking against Amar Singh and also Kalyan Singh. His tirade against both is unfair,” Yadav said today, adding he would step in and thrash out the differences after the elections.
Singh, who was addressing an election meeting here last night in support of sitting MP Jayaprada, the cause for Khan’s tussle with the party leadership, said he would decide over continuing in the party after the end of the final phase of the Lok Sabha polls.
