UP Elections: BJP 2nd List Out, Rajnath's Son to Contest from Noida
The prospect alliance between the Samajwadi Party and Congress seemed all but over after Congress did not show interest in the 99 seats offered by the SP; but with Sonia Gandhi stepping in there still is some hope.
The 32-page manifesto carries the photographs of Akhilesh and Mulayam, but not Shivpal. Key promises include subsidised ration and travel for women, free smartphones and laptops for students and expansion of the pension scheme and Metro network.
