The next day, he will hold a conference with his party workers in Khajuraho, Chaudhary said. “Akhilesh’s tour aims to strengthen SP’s organisational structure before the announcement of assembly elections and exert pressure to get some seats under INDIA alliance in exchange of seats that it would give to the alliance,” said a senior SP leader.

Madhya Pradesh has a total of 230 assembly constituencies. Last month, the party had declared its candidates for Nivadi, Rajnagar, Bhandera and Mehgaon assembly seats there. On Monday (September 25), the party announced its candidate for one seat in poll-bound Rajasthan.
