Yadav tells Adityanath to confirm his ticket before challenging him in Ayodhya

Samajwadi Party leader Akhilesh Yadav responded to Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath’s challenge over the next Assembly election.

Adityanath said he was ready to contest from Ayodhya and urged Yadav to run against him there.

Yadav replied that Adityanath should first confirm his own election ticket.

Earlier, Yadav had challenged Adityanath to contest from Ayodhya, saying the BJP had not found a suitable candidate for the seat.

The exchange is about where the two leaders might contest, but the claims do not confirm that either will run there.

No decision on their constituencies is stated.
