Senior SP leader Shivpal Yadav on Wednesday met Yogi Adityanath, a meeting which comes days after party patriarch Mulayam Singh Yadav's daughter-in-law Aparna Yadav met the UP chief minister.
Shivpal, who is also MLA from the party's bastion of Jaswantnagar, held a "courtesy meeting" with Adityanath for nearly 15 minutes at 5 Kalidas Marg, the official residence of the UP Chief Minister.
Earlier on March 24, Aparna Yadav had met the UP chief minister.

The SP got only 47 seats in the 403-member UP Assembly.
Shivpal, the warring uncle of SP chief Akhilesh Yadav, had threatened to form a new party after the polls.
However, Shivpal had recently said any decision on forming a new party was yet to be taken.
"I am with Netaji (Mulayam) and would stay with him," he had said.
