Lucknow:
Samajwadi Party Chief Mulayam Singh Yadav today held a meeting with Uttar Pradesh's council of ministers in Lucknow.
In the meeting, attended by 59 ministers, Mr Yadav discussed about the future course of actions for the upcoming by-elections in the state.
"We all have decided that in the coming elections we will win all the Vidhan Sabha seats," party leader Azam Khan said.
In the Lok Sabha election this year, the Samajwadi Party won just five of 80 seats in Uttar Pradesh, the state it has ruled since 2012. Mulayam Singh won two of the seats; his daughter-in-law Dimple and nephews Akshay Yadav and Dharmendra Yadav won the rest.
Mr Yadav last month tore into his son, Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Akhikesh Yadav, over the party's rout in the national election. Akhilesh Yadav had also sacked 36 minister-rank leaders after the poll defeat.
Meanwhile, resentment is also growing in the state over recent incidents of crime, especially against women.
