 "Yogi Adityanath")
When he was Uttar Pradesh chief minister (2012-17), Akhilesh Yadav faced acerbic criticism from Mulayam Singh Yadav, his father and then ruling Samajwadi Party (SP) president. On many an occasion, the senior Yadav admonished his son for being “ineffective in keeping the bureaucracy on a leash” and the bureaucrats, rather than the chief ministers or his ministers, were calling the shots.
In the opposition then, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) took note of this gleefully and spliced its attacks on Akhilesh with those of his father.
Now the boot is on the other leg. Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath faces the same predicament
