Lucknow: Downplaying the much-publicized rift between him and party chief Mulayam Singh Yadav, Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadav on Wednesday said that achievements of Samajwadi Party government coupled with blessings of 'Neta Ji' will bring the party in power again.

- Uttar Pradesh has given many Prime Ministers to India.

- Several people write Delhi NCR on their cards but I appeal them to consider it a part of UP.

- We have given a world class Yamuna Expressway.

- Samajwadi Party government has worked for the development in every sector.
