Mulayam laid bare his anger for the first time after the SP's defeat in the UP assembly elections. "I was badly insulted and humiliated, which I had never faced in my life. Nevertheless, I tolerated. No leader of any party in India had made his son a CM during his lifetime, but I made Akhilesh the CM of UP," Mulayam said.
"Modi was right in saying 'jo apne baap kaa nahi ho saka, woh aapka kya hogaa' (how can a person who is not loyal to his father, be loyal to you). The public understood this statement and took it seriously. This resulted in election debacle of SP and BJP won the elections" he added.
