Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav will file his nomination from the Kannauj Lok Sabha seat on Thursday, April 25.
The party took to X (formerly Twitter) on Wednesday to confirm Akhilesh's move amid suspense over the
seat the SP chief was going to contest in the Lok Sabha polls.
The confirmation comes just days after the Samajwadi Party declared Tej Pratap Yadav, nephew of Akhilesh Yadav, as its candidate from Kannauj in Uttar Pradesh.
