Gujarat election: Sharad Yadav-led group to fight on auto-rickshaw symbol

A day after the Election Commission recognised the group led by Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar as the Janata Dal (United) and rejected the claim of the Sharad Yadav faction over the party's name and election symbol, the veteran socialist leader said his party would fight the Assembly elections in Gujarat on the 'auto rickshaw symbol'. In Gujarat, the group is led by legislator Chhotubhai Vasava.

The group is set to contest the polls in alliance with the Congress party. Yadav declined to disclose the number of seats his group has demanded from the Congress. He said discussions were still on
