The Samajwadi Party (SP) today named Aparna Yadav, the younger daughter-in-law of party chief Mulayam Singh Yadav, as its candidate for the Lucknow Cantonment assembly constituency.

Ms Yadav, who is active in social work, is the daughter of senior journalist Arvind Singh Bisht, one of the information commissioners in Uttar Pradesh.
The development would mean another member of the Yadav clan taking the leap into politics.
