SP chief Akhilesh Yadav; (right) Congress leader Rahul Gandhi
Upset with the Congress for not conceding any seat so far for the Samajwadi Party in the Madhya Pradesh Assembly polls, SP chief Akhilesh Yadav on Thursday hinted that the Congress could get the same treatment from his party in Uttar Pradesh.
In stinging remarks that exposed chinks in the opposition INDIA grouping, Yadav also said the Congress leadership should not allow its "small leaders" to comment on his party.
He called the Congress state president a "chirkut" (below standard) and alleged that Con-gress leaders were in cahoots with the BJP.
The SP chief said his party leaders wouldn't have picked calls from the Congress for a meeting in Madhya Pradesh had he known that the INDIA alliance was confined to the na-tional level.
