LUCKNOW, MAY 13: A senior state Bahujan Samaj Party leader Vijay Pal Singh Yadav resigned from the primary membership of the party today claiming that there was no "inner party democracy" and that he was "feeling suffocated in it".

Yadav told newsmen here that he was resigning from the party "as it had deviated from its path and was reduced to an organisation of a handful of people who just wanted to serve their personal interests".

"There is no inner party democracy in BSP and I feel suffocated in it", he alleged.

Yadav, who had earlier held different posts in Samajwadi Party, said he has faxed his resignation to the BSP National Vice President Mayawati, who is presently in Delhi.
