The two leaders at a press conference released the commitments which include major promises made by the two parties to the people of the state in their manifestos.
The list of commitments include distribution of free smartphones to youth, employment guarantee through skill development to 20 lakh youths, loan waiver to farmers, cheap power and proper remuneration for crops.

"At least Samajwadi people practically give shape to what they say but some others only do 'mann ki baat' but 'kaam ki baat nahi karte'... they do not say in rallies and in districts what are the achievements of their government," Mr Yadav said.
"(They say) two families have entered into an alliance... I will say that two youths have come together it is an alliance of SP and Congress...," he stressed in response to a jibe at Prime Minister Narendra Modi's comment in this regard.
"These are ten steps to development worked out by the two parties on which Congress and SP will work on coming to power in future," Mr Yadav added.
