Samajwadi Party (SP) supremo Mulayam Singh Yadav will contest Lok Sabha polls from Azamgarh parliamentary seat along with his traditional Mainpuri seat. SP's national general secretary Ramgopal Yadav announced that the decision to field Mulayam from Azamgarh has been taken on the demand of party workers and leaders from various districts of Poorvanchal.

Politically, Mulayam's decision to contest from Azamgarh is seen as a move to counter the Narendra Modi's effect in eastern region of the state after BJP announced latter's candidature from Varanasi. Several other SP candidates in adjoining seats are also likely to be changed by the party.
