The Samajwadi Party which has opposed the Food Security Bill, could end up backing it after all thanks to a deal with the Congress.
According to a CNN-IBN report a Samajwadi Party-Congress deal is in the offing with sources telling CNN-IBN that Mulayam Singh Yadav is likely to support the Food Security Bill in Parliament’s Monsoon Session.
The support comes at a time when the CBI is all set to give the SP leader, his son Prateek and Akhilesh Yadav, and daughter-in-law Dimple Yadav, a clean chit in the disproportionate assets corruption case.
In November 2005, a PIL was filed in the Supreme Court seeking a CBI probe into the assets of Mulayam Singh, his sons Akhilesh and Prateek, and daughter-in-law Dimple. It was alleged the family had acquired properties worth over Rs 100 crore in UP, disproportionate to known sources of their income.
PTI had reported that the CBI would file a closure report on the case but the agency had later clarified that final decision was taken in the case against Mulayam Singh and his family.
“The matter is currently under probe as per the directions of the Honourable Court. Inquiry is underway and in its final stages. No final decision has been taken yet. As and when the probe is over, CBI will apprise the court,” CBI said.
However, the report on CNN-IBN also points out that even if the CBI closes the case against Mulayam, that SP leader still has a review petition against an Election Commission order also pending in the Supreme Court.
The Samajwadi party had previously opposed the food security bill stating that it was against the interests of farmers.
This is not the first time that the Congress has reached out to Mulayam by going soft on him. In 2008, when the Left withdrew from the government over the Indo-US nuclear deal, it was Mulayam who saved the day for UPA by helping them win the no-confidence motion.
