Foul Play by Mulayam Singh Yadav

No one could have expected that Mulaym singh and his samajwadi party would join the Congress wagon till recently.This is called political opportunism.They shell shocked the communists by alignig with UPA ,saying,in the interest of the nation to save the nuke deal.But, people could easily understand the SP and Congress position.The UPA desperately looking for support from any side to go ahead with its nuke deal and to save gov till the end of this year.Congress knows that it can not gain more seats ,forget the power, in UP without other party's support.BSP has been critical of Congress.And for Mulayam ,to check BSP he needs the congress.So both parties find this is the right time to come together for each others gain.Congress may have written off the state UP like Tamilnadu where it gave the rule to dravidian parties after Kamaraj and playing politics just to get some more MP's to its favour.But,realising the reality is the right step.In UP,cong is reduced to a smaller party after BSP,SP and BJP.Not even Rahul and Sonia were able to attract people.If the alliance clicks it is good for the cong, to checkmate BJP.Because UP has more no of MP seats and it reduces the dependene on parties like PMK,DMK and other small parties.Will be interesting to see what BSP will do ,whether it will join the NDA ?
On the whole UPA suddenly rised with strenth and and once again proved the politics is only a power game inwhich no one is shy of shifting sides for their personal goals.
