A patch-up in the offing? Reports say Akhilesh Yadav is on his way to Mulayam Singh's residence in Lucknow. Shivpal is also headed there. Mediator and senior SP leader Azam Khan is at the meeting.

Reports says that the SP chief Mulayam Singh Yadav left New Delhi in a chartered without Shivpal and reached Lucknow this morning.


The war within the ruling Samajwadi Party of Uttar Pradesh moved from Lucknow to Delhi where Mulayam Singh approached the Election Commission to stake claim over the 'cycle' symbol, hours after cancelling the January 5 party convention called by him.


Mulayam's son Akhilesh Yadav, the Chief Minister who deposed his father from the post of national party president, met the full three-member Election Commission today with the same claim.
