During a press conference in Lucknow, Akhilesh Yadav (chief of the Samajwadi Party) criticized the BJP for organizing the 'Jan Aakrosh Mahila Padyatra' to protest against the opposition's actions regarding the Constitution (131st Amendment) Bill, 2026. Yadav suggested that the BJP's initiative indicates its awareness of impending defeat in the 2027 Uttar Pradesh elections, predicting that they will resort to similar protests once they are in opposition. He asserted that the Samajwadi Party has consistently supported women's rights and empowerment, contrasting this with the BJP's alleged attempts to undermine women's progress. Additionally, Yadav announced the appointment of Seema Rajbhar as the national president of the SP's women's wing, a strategic move aimed at attracting Rajbhar voters from the eastern region of Uttar Pradesh.
