A day after being expelled from Samajwadi Party, Ram Gopal Yadav today rejected suggestions that he plans to form a new party with Akhilesh Yadav but asserted he will work towards ensuring his nephew becomes the Uttar Pradesh chief minister again after next year's polls.
"There is no question of forming another party. Why should I form another party? Those who have nothing should think of forming another party. Everything is with Akhilesh. People are with him," he said.
Reiterating his loyalty to Akhilesh, he dared party leaders Shivpal Yadav and Amar Singh to list out their charges and allegations against him in a public meeting and walk away unscathed.

He was expelled from the party yesterday for allegedly colluding with BJP with the purpose of damaging the SP.
In a statement faxed from here yesterday, Ram Gopal had said he would always remain with nephew Akhilesh in the "holy war" though Mulayam will continue to remain his "guru" in politics.
