In the upcoming by-elections to nine seats in Uttar Pradesh, the Samajwadi Party and the Congress have yet to reach an agreement on the allocation of seats. The two men were at odds over some seats. If sources are to be believed, Rahul Gandhi and Akhilesh Yadav discussed the seat issue last night. The Samajwadi Party is also prepared to leave the Phulpur seat to the Congress party, but the final decision must be taken by the top leadership of the Congress party.
For example, there are also problems in the Ghaziabad seat and a by-election is going to be held in the Ghaziabad Sardar seat. The Congress party is also in no mood to contest the election from this seat. I believe that late tonight or tomorrow morning the seat situation between the Socialists and Congress will be cleared.

Uday Veer, who represents the Samajwadi Party in negotiating the seat allocation issue, said that negotiations between the two parties have entered the final stage and everything will become clear after the Congress party announces its decision.
Congress doesn’t want Ghaziabad Sardar to get seat
On the other hand, new news has emerged from the Congress Party that the Congress does not want the Ghaziabad Sadar seat left to it by the Samajwadi Party. Congress has been putting pressure on Mirapur and Purpur. On the other hand, the Samajwadi Party candidate filed his nomination in Phulpur today, but according to the party, it is not a big deal.
If any different decision were made about Poole, everyone would accept the party’s decision. This means that even if during the talks between the SP and the Congress, an agreement is reached to hand over the Phulpur seat to the Congress, the SP can withdraw the nomination of its candidate.
