Press Trust of India New Delhi

NLP president Arshad Khan said his party would issue a whip to its MP Baleshwar Yadav to vote against the Government on July 22 in Lok Sabha as it was opposed to the nuclear deal with the United States.     

Yadav, who quit Samajwadi Party earlier, is the NLP MP from Padrauna (UP) Lok Sabha constituency.     

 

"The Prime Minister (Manmohan Singh) has explained the deal to SP leaders Mulayam Singh Yadav and Amar Singh only. He should explain it in detail to other parties also," he told reporters.     

After submitting a fresh letter to President Pratiba Patil vowing support to the UPA, Singh has claimed on July 9 that NLP MP would vote in favour of the UPA.     

"Baleshwar Yadav is basically of Samajwadi Party origin," Singh has said.
