“I had already resigned from the Samajwadi Party when I floated the PSPL. I am not worried about disqualification because I will seek re-election from my own Jaswantnagar constituency and the SP can field anyone they want to,” he said.

Replying to a question, Yadav said that if he contests a by-election in event of his disqualification, Mulayam Singh Yadav should campaign for him. “I had campaigned for Netaji despite my differences with SP and he should also reciprocate,” Yadav said.
