Meanwhile, senior SP leader Ram Govind Chaudhary has reached the residence of Maurya to convince him not to float a new political outfit and remain in the SP.

However, Swami did not comment on his decision to form a new party.

Maurya had recently resigned from the post of National General Secretary of the party, alleging neglect in SP. He had said in his letter to Akhilesh Yadav that Dr Bhimrao Ambedkar and Dr Ram Manohar Lohia were in favour of social justice and had given the slogan of 85 versus 15. But, Samajwadi Party is continuously making this slogan ineffective, he has alleged.

Trying to minimise the impact of the resignation of Swami from the party post, SP chief Akhilesh Yadav had commented that it was a party affair and it will be resolved amicably.

Meanwhile, reacting to Maurya floating a new political outfit, Akhilesh said on social media, ” How can anyone know about what others have in their minds. ”

He told the media, without taking any names, that there were several people who take the benefit from the party and then part ways for their own personal interest .

He refused to say anything more on the matter
