In a high-pitched and bitter battle for Uttar Pradesh, the low profile Dimple Yadav, Lok Sabha MP from Kannauj and Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadav's wife, seems to be emerging as a leader in her own right. Addressing well over 20 rallies on her own, it's been a long journey for Dimple who lost her first election - the Lok Sabha polls of 2009 - and has largely been a silent MP in parliament since 2009.
