Incumbent legislator Atul Pradhan voiced strong opposition to news of the Samajwadi Party considering a change of candidates for the Meerut seat. Rumors suggest that the party may nominate Sunita Verma in place of Pradhan. In light of these speculations, Pradhan stated he would resign from his MLA position if his ticket is revoked.
According to sources, Atul Pradhan was summoned to the office by the Samajwadi Party, where Akhilesh Yadav broached the subject of not contesting the Meerut election. Responding to this, Pradhan offered his resignation and remarked, 'I accept the national president Shri Akhilesh Yadav Ji's decision! Will discuss further with colleagues soon.'
Let us inform you that Atul Pradhan is the MLA from the Sardhana seat and has previously defeated BJP leader Sangeet Som in the assembly elections. Previously, SP changed its candidate from this seat from Bhanupratap to Atul Pradhan, which is why the news of another potential candidate replacement has presumably upset Pradhan.
SP leader Atul Pradhan's threat to resign marks a notable point of contention within the party, reflecting deeper currents of political maneuvering as the elections draw near. Pradhan's decisive stance reiterates the intricate dance of loyalty and power in the world of politics.
