The socialist social gathering was, after all, hoping to revive itself within the upcoming polls subsequent yr, however Owaisi appears to have determined to push the SP additional down its electoral grave.Naturally, with the AIMIM hogging a significant chunk of the Muslim votes, which might have in any other case gone to Samajwadi Party, is a disaster like no different for Akhilesh Yadav.
