An alliance between Akhilesh Yadav Samajwadi Party and Mayawati Bahujan Samaj Party for the 2019 Lok Sabha elections is expected to be announced next month. The formal announcement will be made on Mayawati birthday on January 15, 2019. There will be no inclusion of the Congress as both parties are fed by the high handedness of the Grand Old Party, reports said. Rashtriya Lok Dal of Ajit Singh will also be a part of this alliance. Akhilesh and Mayawati have decided to keep room for OP Rajbhar as he can join the grand alliance. Rajbhar is presently a minister in the Yogi Adityanath government.
