Kannauj Lok Sabha Seat in Uttar Pradesh By-Poll on June 24,2012


Akhilesh Yadav's wife to contest Kannauj Lok Sabha Seat By-Poll

Samajwadi Party president Mulayam Singh's daughter-in-law, Dimple Yadav, will contest the June 24 by-election for the Kannauj Lok Sabha seat, vacated by his son and Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadav.
Kannauj by-election will be Ms. Yadav's second attempt at entering the Lok Sabha after her debacle in the Firozabad by-election in 2009. In the Firozabad poll, necessitated by the resignation of her husband who preferred to retain Kannauj, Raj Babbar of the Congress won and Ms. Yadav's defeat was a huge blow to the SP president.
