Lucknow: Samajwadi
Party leader Mulayam Singh Yadav appears to have fast tracked his
party's preparations for Lok Sabha polls by reportedly asking his
party men to be prepared for the polls ''anytime in 2013'', party
sources told IANS Tuesday.
Insiders in the party said that Mulayam asked his party men to be
prepared for the LS polls "anytime in 2013" and gave them a target
of 50 seats. He also asked the leaders to fan out in the
constituencies and try to tell them what all the SP government had
done for them in the last three months under the chief
ministership of his son, Akhilesh Yadav.
At a meeting held under Mulayam's chairmanship, the SP has also
appointed 58 observers for the 58 parliamentary constituencies it
was defeated in the last general elections.
The party decided that a call would be taken later on the 22 Lok
Sabha seats it holds presently.
The party leadership also decided that no ministers of the state
government and legislators would be allowed to contest the Lok
Sabha polls.
At the two-hour-long meeting, the party also asked the observers
to travel to the constituencies, talk to people, cadres and the
local leadership to gauge the mind of the electorate on local
issues before submitting a detailed report to the national
leadership by July 30.
