The Samajwadi Party (SP) on Monday April 16,2018 announced Naresh Uttam Patel as its
candidate for the upcoming Legislative Council elections. The move is
seen as an attempt by SP chief Akhilesh Yadav to woo Patel voters ahead
of the 2019 Lok Sabha elections.
The Samajwadi Party has already announced its support to BSP candidate Bhim Rao Ambedkar for the Legislative Council polls after he lost the Rajya Sabha elections recently.
The support of 29 MLAs is required for one MLC seat. In this case, the Samajwadi Party, along with Bahujan Samaj Party and Congress, will be able to send only two candidates to the Council, whereas the BJP will be able to send 11 candidates comfortably.
