Mainpuri (Uttar Pradesh): The Mainpuri Parliamentary constituency witnessed a 44.13 per cent voter turnout till 3 pm today in the ongoing bypoll elections.

“I have complete faith that SP will win the Mainpuri bypolls, people have realised that BJP is fighting polls unfairly so they will get the reply once the poll results are out,” SP candidate Dimple Yadav said.

Speaking to ANI, Akhilesh Yadav said, “I hope BJP will have a massive defeat in Gujarat… I believe SP will get a good number of votes in Mainpuri byelections, people will vote for us… BJP must allow the central agencies (Election Commission) to operate freely, BJP is misusing them.”
Akhilesh alleged that in the Mainpuri bye-election, Bharatiya Janata Party is not contesting, instead, the government and administration are fighting for BJP to win the polls.
The entire Yadav family including Akhilesh Yadav appealed to voters to vote for Samajwadi Party in the name of the late Mulayam Singh Yadav, who passed away on October 10.
