Etawah: Holi festivities in Saifai, the native village of Samajwadi Party (SP) patriarch Mulayam Singh Yadav, witnessed the warring uncle and nephew, Shivpal Singh Yadav and party president Akhilesh Yadav, share the dais after a long time.
Both the leaders attended the Holi function yesterday, with Akhilesh also touching the feet of the former and taking his blessings.
Akhilesh Yadav, the former Uttar Pradesh chief minister, also restrained his and his uncle's supporters from raising slogans.
Akhilesh Yadav added that if slogans had to be raised, they should be in favour of the "cycle", the party symbol.
On the occasion, Shivpal Yadav said, "Festivals are more fun if people have love for each other in their hearts. In villages, people give importance to trivial issues that create animosity and the clever people take the advantage...people need to sit, talk and remove the misunderstandings...this will not give an opportunity to others to take advantage of the situation...people need to forget their differences on Holi."
The Yadav family celebrates Holi in Saifai every year with the SP patriarch joining family members, villagers, party workers, supporters and friends in the festivities.
