Mulayam has no right to call himself secular: Azam Khan

Lashing out at Samajwadi Party chief Mulayam Singh Yadav for joining hands with former BJP veteran Kalyan Singh, ousted party leader Azam Khan on Saturday said
the former Uttar Pradesh chief minister has no right to call himself "secular".
    
"Mulayam Singh's real face has appeared before the masses. He has embraced that former BJP stalwart (Kalyan) on whose role even the saffron party had expressed shame. Yadav has no right to call himself secular," he said while addressing a huge gathering here last night.

Khan accused Yadav of encouraging nepotism as was evident from the nomination of his son Akhilesh Yadav as party's state president, brother Shivpal Singh Yadav as Leader of the Opposition in the state assembly and allotment of an important
position to his close relative Ram Gopal Yadav.
    
"Mulayam Singh in his new avtar is not ready to accommodate in the party even a single person of any other 'sub-caste'," he added. The Lok Sabha results have proved that Yadav has lost the faith of the minority community.
