Nishad party chief Sanjay Nishad and sitting Member of Parliament (MP) from Gorakhpur Praveen Nishad have left for New Delhi to meet Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) president Amit Shah on Saturday.

Speaking to ANI, Sanjay Nishad said, "We are going to Delhi to meet Amit Shah and speak about my party's issues. It is a big party and under them, voices of the small parties could be heard."

Sanjay also said seat-sharing will be discussed after talks with the BJP chief.

Praveen Nishad, on the other hand, claimed that his party allied with SP and BSP last year, but has been neglected since then.

On Friday, Nishad Party severed ties with the S-BSP-RLD alliance in Uttar Pradesh for the upcoming Lok Sabha elections. They also met Uttar Pradesh chief minister Yogi Adityanath in Lucknow later that day.
