Congress effort to forge Mahagathbandhan in UP forced me to rejoin SP: Beni

Lucknow, May 13(UNI) Congress efforts to forge a grand alliance on the pattern of Bihar against the Akhilesh Yadav government for 2017 Assembly elections and his marginalisation in the grand-old party led him to switch loyalty and rejoin the Samajwadi Party, Former Union Minister Beni Prasad Verma said today.
"I can fight Mulayam Singh Yadav, I can also tolerate if somebody is opposed to Mulayam Singh Yadav but I cannot stand opposition to Akhilesh Yadav. He is like my son. Congress is trying to forge a coalition against the Samajwadi Party for the 2017 assembly elections, so I decided to part company with the grand old party,'' disclosed Mr Verma here while talking to UNI after rejoining the SP.
"I wish to thank Congress president Sonia Gandhi and vice-president Rahul Gandhi for giving me the honour of nominating me to the highest decision making body of the party, the Congress Working Committee, and also inducting in the Union cabinet,'' said Mr Verma.
