Akhilesh Yadav inducts non-Yadav OBC, non-Jatav Dalit leaders to expand PDA base

In an effort to strengthen the PDA campaign, Akhilesh Yadav has successfully onboarded former BJP MP Dharmendra Kashyap along with his daughter. This initiative is aimed at expanding the party's support among non-Yadav OBC and non-Jatav Dalit electorates. Yadav’s commitment of an assembly ticket to Kirti Kashyap further illustrates the party's strategic positioning.
