UP Politics: Akhilesh Yadav Targets CM Yogi, Makes Bold Statement on Rajputs | ABP News

In a sharp political move ahead of the 2027 Uttar Pradesh Assembly elections, Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav visited Agra, where he extended support to Rajya Sabha MP Ramji Lal Suman, currently under fire for his controversial remarks targeting the Rajput community. Though the visit appeared to be a gesture of solidarity, political analysts believe it was a calculated effort to consolidate Dalit (Scheduled Caste) votes.Speaking to the media, Akhilesh subtly criticized CM Yogi Adityanath and hinted at caste-based favoritism under the current regime. The SP leader’s remarks are being seen as a strategic attempt to counter BJP’s upper-caste voter base, particularly Rajputs, who have been a strong support pillar for Yogi’s leadership.With two years remaining for the next state elections, caste politics in Uttar Pradesh is already heating up. Political parties are realigning their strategies, using caste equations as a potent formula to gain voter loyalty. Akhilesh’s latest move signals that the battle for UP is not just about governance but about mastering the art of caste arithmetic.His remarks have stirred controversy, with BJP leaders accusing him of playing divisive politics, while SP supporters call it a bold stand for backward and marginalized communities.
