Akhilesh lacks political maturity: D P Yadav

BADAUN (UP): Hitting out at Akhilesh Yadav for opposing his induction into Samajwadi Party, controversial MLA D P Yadav today said the SP Uttar Pradesh chief is "immature" and lack experience in politics.

"Though he is an MP but the maturity required in politics is lacking and he is behaving like a youth just out of school or college," Yadav said here.

Yadav, BSP's sitting MLA from Sahaswan (Badaun), had expressed his desire to join the party after BSP denied him ticket. He had met senior SP leader Mohammad Azam Khan in Rampur after which speculation was rife that he along with his wife Umlesh, who is also an MLA, would join the party.

However, Akhilesh had opposed Yadav's induction, saying people having criminal antecedent will not be taken into the party.
