Poonam Sinha, however, joined Akhilesh Yadav-led Samajwadi Party in the presence of Dimple Yadav.
It is speculated that Poonam Sinha will be fielded as the SP-BSP-RLD candidate from Lucknow against Union minister Rajnath Singh. The decision to field Poonam Sinha as the joint opposition candidate against Rajnath Singh is seen as an attempt by the opposition parties to keep the Union Home Minister confined to his constituency.
