Uttar Pradesh chief minister Akhilesh Yadav said on Sunday that Samajwadi Party (SP) supremo Mulayam Singh Yadav and elected party legislators will chose who will head the next government if voted back to power. Netaji will decide the CM face for 2017. Q: Mulayam had said that he should have gone by Shivpal’s advice and become the CM himself in 2012. When I was the state president, I had organised workers’ rallies in all the constituencies to understand the public pulse vis a vis elections. It will now be up to the people as they have to decide who will be the next CM and from which party.
