Netaji Mulayam Singh Yadav’s second son Pratik Yadav’s marriage is being held in Safai today. Pratik is to marry Arvind Singh Bist’s daughter Aparna. Both are old friends. But Netaji has clearly told both Pratik and Aparna that they shouldn’t nurse any political ambitions because he has decided that Akshilesh will succeed the political empire. But he is happy with the alliance and is throwing a grand reception on December 7 in Lucknow.
