The politically influential Yadav family arrived together to cast their votes for the state assembly election in Saifai in Uttar Pradesh on Sunday.
As the sun rose on Sunday, Uttar Pradesh’s Saifai was all set for an action-packed day of polling. The town has often found itself in the limelight over the past few decades, seeing as it is home to the politically influential Yadav family and has given not one but two chief ministers to Uttar Pradesh.
As the third phase of polling in the Uttar Pradesh Assembly election kicked off on Sunday, members of the Yadav family began trickling in at Abhinav School in Saifai with the hope of bringing the Samajwadi Party back to power in the state.
While ‘choti bahu’ Aparna Yadav had decided to join the BJP ahead of the election, SP chief Akhilesh Yadav ensured the rest of the family put up a united show on polling day.
The first member of the Yadav family to arrive at the polling centre was Mulayam Singh Yadav’s younger brother Abhay Ram Yadav.
Dressed in a dhoti and a red cap, Abhay Yadav arrived on his motorcycle. His arrival resulted in a hysterical frenzy among shutterbugs who had mistaken him for the SP patriarch, Mulayam Singh Yadav, himself.
