Samajwadi Party President Akhilesh Yadav Dissolves All Organizations With Immediate Effect

Akhilesh Yadav, president of the Samajwadi Party, disbanded the national, state, and district executive bodies of all its organizations, including the youth and women's wings, with immediate effect on July 3. The action is perceived as an effort to reform the SP following the disastrous Lok Sabha by-poll results in the party strongholds of Rampur and Azamgarh. However, the party's Uttar Pradesh president, Naresh Uttam, will stay in his post.
