The Samajwadi Party (SP) has announced its candidates for two more seats in the upcoming bypolls in Uttar Pradesh. This brings the total number of candidates declared by the party to eight. The SP had earlier named six candidates for the bypolls, which are scheduled to be held on September 5. The party is hoping to make a strong showing in the bypolls, which are seen as a litmus test for the party's performance in the upcoming Lok Sabha elections.
The SP is currently in the opposition in Uttar Pradesh, but the party is looking to make a comeback in the state. The bypolls are an important opportunity for the party to showcase its strength and galvanize its base. The party's leader, Akhilesh Yadav, has been campaigning aggressively in the state and has been trying to highlight the failures of the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) government.
The bypolls are being seen as a crucial test for both the SP and the BJP. The results of the bypolls will give an indication of the political mood in the state and could have a significant impact on the upcoming Lok Sabha elections. The SP is hoping to use the bypolls to build momentum and make a strong challenge to the BJP in the Lok Sabha elections.
