SP chief Mulayam Singh to lead Samajwadi Janata Dal
Kumar said that Samajwadi Party (SP) chief Mulayam Singh Yadav would lead a merger initiative.
“We have already decided to work together. Now the next step is a merger to form one party. Mulayam Singh will work out modalities in that direction,” he said.
Kumar said that his Janata Dal (United) and partner Lalu Prasad Yadav’s Rashtriya Janata Dal were among six members of the new front.
He said the SJD will hold a sit-in demonstration in Delhi on December 22 against what he called the government’s failure to bring back black money stashed abroad. It will also protest against the issues of farmer suicides and rising unemployment across the country.
Kumar said that people from outside the “Janata Parivaar” who may have the same feelings could also join the common platform later.
