A day after Shivpal Yadav declared that he would float a new outfit 'Samajwadi Secular Morcha, with elder brother Mulayam Singh Yadav as its chief, Samajwadi Party (SP) patriarch Mulayam on Saturday said Shivpal had not spoken to him regarding this announcement.

“I have not met Shivpal for the last one week... He has not spoken to me as yet about it (the front)… I will talk to him,” Mulayam told Hindustan Times on Saturday in Lucknow. 

“As for the front, he has simply given a statement. I will talk to him, pacify him,” Mulayam added.
