"I have not challenged anybody but if I am challenged, I will accept it," he said when asked if he was daring Rahul Gandhi politically, who is being credited for Raj Babbar's victory in the Lok Sabha by-elections in Firozabad.
Addressing a press conference along with his wife Dimple who lost out to Babbar, Yadav took a dig at the Congress leader, saying he congratulated Gandhi for Congress' victory in Firozabad but he should also accept the blame for his party's defeat in the Assembly bypolls in the state.
Congress has won only one out of 11 Assembly seats which went for bypolls in Uttar Pradesh.
Holding the Congress responsible for backwardness of Uttar Pradesh, Yadav said, "Spending a night at a Dalit's house will not do away with his poverty. These people should also tell them who is responsible for their condition."
He said while Congress had been campaigning for young leadership, they fielded "an old person" in Firozabad...SP's candidate (his wife Dimple Yadav) was the youngest in the fray.
Yadav, son of party supremo Mulayam Singh Yadav, alleged that BJP and Congress had a tacit understanding which led to SP's defeat in the by-elections. "BJP's votes were diverted to Congress".
The SP leader said that the party will review the reasons behind its defeat.
"We will reach to the people, who did not vote for the SP candidate, and will find reasons for the anger towards the party," Yadav said.
On the issue of the attack on SP MLA Abu Asim Azmi in Maharashtra Assembly, he accused Congress of keeping mum. "Congress has always maintained silence on such issues. It did the same when North Indians were being attacked in Mumbai."
He also held the Congress and BSP Government responsible for the backwardness, price rise and unemployment in Uttar Pradesh.

first of all when I read this it gave me the impression of a boxing bout rather than some political news, Politics is about working for your country rather than such idiotic fights ,
Stalin, karunananidhi and his family - also DMK and AIADMK.. they don't think so they are part of inida, they very bad people and they think TN is their country.. tamil peoples are creating problem every where see srilnaka, malaasia, they do not have good relationship with Karnataka, andhra, kerala and North indians, how one can compare stalin with Rahul - Karunanidhi - he is sick with ladies...
Both are the political scion of their families.Raul is more powerful then Akhi in resources. SP was in the power not for its socialist approach, but since muslims became disgusted with Con-grass they ruled the roast. Con-grass has successfully brought back muslim vote bank to their fold. SP has now no more relevance in UP politics and is in way out and it may help BJP to stand again on its feet. Now if Akhi is to take on Raul should/will join BJP in near future.
If Congress and BSP had a tacit understanding to divert the BJP votes to Congress, then SP must be happy that secularism was saved and communal Hindus defeated. These evil satanic "secular" politicians with forked tongues all deserve to suffer in hell, and may it happen soon.
It is a amusing to see the media portraying Babbar's victory as success of Rahu mania. This is tweaking of the lowest order. INC looses in 10 and wins in 1 (may be by fluke) and our "of so kangrayzee" media is quick in making a success out of an apparent failure. Jai Ho!
Raul doesnot need challenge from Akhil,Very soon he will be out thanks to Antonio
Rahul cant win over the young regional leaders like Akhilesh & Stalin as they are going to rule UP & TN respectively and decide who has to form Govt. at central. Mr. Rahul may need their alliance to become PM.
THIS MADE TO MEASURE LEADERS LIKE RAHUL - AKHILESH AND STALIN ARE NOT THERE TO DEVELOPE THE STATES NOR THE COUNTRY BUT TO CONTROL THE ASSESTS TO LOOT FOR THE FAMILY . THIS IS WAR BETWEEN TWO MAFIAS FROM THE STATE AND THE CENTRE . IF CONGRESS FAILED TO DO ANY THING IN LAST IN LAST TEN YEARS , WHAT DO YOU EXPECT THIS " GHADHARS " WILL DO WHEN ELECTED TO THE TOP POST . EVERY DAY LARGE SCALE FRAUDS AND SCANDLES ARE EXPOSED . DOES CONGRESS CARE ? NO . THEY ARE ONLY INTERESTED TO INSTALL MORON PRINCE RAUL VINCI TO BE NEXT P.M. TO RUIN THE COUNTRY . IT IS HIGH TIME PEOPLE GET RID OF THIS TWO MOST EVIL FORCES FOR INDIA TO DEVELOPE .
One cant underestimate Akhilesh Yadav & SP. At UP level, he too has family background and being young alongwith "MY" vote bank, he will show the door to any national leader in the next General election.
These thugs have to be defeated .The money power of AB and amar cannot sustain a party full of frauds.If bjp and congress colluded ,it is a good move. evil has to be destroyed next the bsp
What nonsense is he talking about? He has already been challenged by RAHUL and Rahul has outsmarted him in all the seats contested. SP is a non-issue party and is about to be consigned to the DUSTBIN of History.
