Lucknow: The Apna Dal (Kamerawadi) leader, Pallavi Patel, indicated on Friday that her party was ready to ally with the BJP-led NDA if they made such an offer.
This comes a day after the Apna Dal (K) snapped ties with the Samajwadi Party (SP) and announced its decision to contest the Lok Sabha polls on its own. The Apna Dal (K) announced that it would contest from Mirzapur, Phulpur and Kaushambi Lok Sabha seats.
Interestingly, the sitting MP from Mirzapur is Pallavi Patel’s estranged sister and Union Minister, Anupriya Patel who heads the Apna Dal (Sonelal). “There are no talks with the NDA right now. If an offer comes then our organisation will consider it,” she told reporters on Friday.
