Yadav will now be provided security cover given to Bihar ministers, a notification issued by the state home department said.
Sharad Yadav who is the leader of the JD(U) in the Rajya Sabha said that the decision was unfortunate. “I don't agree with the decision in Bihar, its unfortunate.The mandate by the people was not for this.”
Sources said that Shivpal Yadav – who led a bitter faction fight against Akhilesh – may not be contesting in the assembly polls slated to begin on February 4. According to the compromise reached, Akhilesh will accommodate Shivpal‘s son Aditya Yadav in the final SP list.
