Mulayam asks Modi to teach his Son

Lucknow, March 22: As we knew, we saw iconic moments in the political History on the occasion of Yogi Aditya Nath sworn-in as the new Chief Minister of Uttar Pradesh on Sunday.

On the day, Samajwadi Party leaders Mulayam Singh Yadav and his son Akhilesh Yadav surprised many by attending the oath-taking ceremony of new Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath.

One scene from the venue that set the tongues wagging was Mulayam whispering something to Prime Minister Narendra Modi. After that, PM Modi was seen patting the back of Akhilesh and all of them were smiling.

Looks like, The Telegraph, did manage to eavesdrop and tell us what really went on. According to a report in the news daily, Mulayam after congratulating Modi over his historic win leaned over to the Prime Minister and asked him to "take care" of his rebel son Akhilesh Yadav.

The newspaper attributes the news to a "senior BJP leader" who wishes to remain anonymous and claims to have overheard the snatches of the conversation.

As Mulayam said this, he also gestured towards his son, who noticed the move and promptly walked over to the senior politicians and shook Modi's hands.

With Modi's hands still firmly held in Akhilesh's in a handshake, Mulayam pressed on and said "inko sikhaiye kuch" apparently referring to the tricks of the trade that is political.
