Aparna Yadav, the younger daughter-in-law of senior Samajwadi Party leader Mulayam Singh Yadav, will join the Bharatiya Janata Party ( BJP) on Wednesday. Aparna Yadav will take the membership of the party at 10 am on Wednesday in the presence of CM Yogi Adityanath and Deputy CM Keshav Prasad Maurya . Haryana BJP IT cell head Arun Yadav has stamped this news. BJP leader has informed by tweeting that Aparna Yadav, wife of Mulayam Singh’s younger son Prateek Yadav, is going to join BJP tomorrow (Wednesday) at 10 am in the presence of Yogi ji.
Aparna Yadav contested the 2017 assembly elections from the Cantt seat of Lucknow. This Samajwadi Party candidate lost to BJP’s Rita Bahuguna Joshi. However, Aparna had secured around 63 thousand votes. On the other hand, this seat fell vacant after Rita Bahuguna Joshi became an MP, on which the by-election was held in 2019 in which BJP had won and Suresh Chand Tiwari became MLA for the fourth time. The screw about this seat is that Rita Bahuguna is demanding a ticket for her son from this seat. The discussion is also that there are some other claimants from here. If sources are to be believed, BJP wants to change Aparna’s seat, but agrees to contest her.
Akhilesh had campaigned!
Aparna is the wife of Prateek Yadav, the younger son of Mulayam Singh and half-brother of Akhilesh Yadav. Aparna contested the 2017 assembly elections from Lucknow Cantt seat on a Samajwadi Party ticket. Akhilesh Yadav had also campaigned for him. The BJP had won this seat in the by-elections held after Joshi was elected MP.
Let us tell you that in view of the UP elections, the work of defection is in full swing in the state. Recently, several MLAs, including three BJP ministers, joined the Samajwadi Party. A few days before this also there were reports of him joining BJP, but then former Kanpur Police Commissioner Aseem Arun had joined BJP single-handedly. However, it has now been decided that tomorrow Aparna will officially go to BJP.
Aparna is a fan of CM Yogi and PM Modi
Despite being in the Samajwadi Party, Aparna Yadav has been seen publicly praising Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath and Prime Minister Narendra Modi. Originally from Uttarakhand, Aparna has also appeared with Yogi Adityanath many times. There are reports that BJP may make him a candidate from Lucknow Cantt assembly seat. On the question of giving ticket to Aparna Yadav, wife of Akhilesh Yadav’s younger brother, he said that ‘BJP is more concerned about our family than us.
