UP Assembly Elections 2022: Is Dara Singh Chauhan joining Samajwadi Party?, Akhilesh Yadav's tweet is the indication

After the Uttar Pradesh cabinet minister and BJP leader Dara Singh Chauhan quit his post. And released the statement which reads, "Hon'ble Governor Raj Bhavan, Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh. In the cabinet of Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath ji, I worked wholeheartedly for the betterment of my department as the Minister of Forest, Environment and Animal Horticulture, but along with the grossly neglectful attitude of the government to the backward, deprived, dalits, farmers and unemployed youth. I resign from the Uttar Pradesh cabinet, being hurt by the play being played with the reservation of backwards and dalits."

Now, Samajwadi chief Akhilesh Yadav took his Twitter account and post the registrations letter of the UP cabinet today, and wrote: “Hearty welcome and greetings to Shri Dara Singh Chouhan ji, the relentless fighter of the struggle for ‘social justice’! The SP and its allies will unite and take forward the movement of equality … Eliminate discrimination! This is our collective resolve! Respect everyone~ space for everyone!”

‘सामाजिक न्याय’ के संघर्ष के अनवरत सेनानी श्री दारा सिंह चौहान जी का सपा में ससम्मान हार्दिक स्वागत एवं अभिनंदन!

सपा व उसके सहयोगी दल एकजुट होकर समता-समानता के आंदोलन को चरम पर ले जाएँगे… भेदभाव मिटाएँगे! ये हमारा समेकित संकल्प है!

सबको सम्मान ~ सबको स्थान!#मेला_होबेpic.twitter.com/rGxMYUyvsd
