I want Prateek to enter politics: Mulayam’s wife

Lucknow : Samajwadi Party patron Mulayam Singh’s wife Sadhna Yadav on Tuesday said that she wants her son Prateek Yadav to enter politics.

“I have talked a lot of time about coming in the forefront. But he said he is there to do it. But now I think it is required. I do not want come to politics but I want to do social work. I want my son Prateek to enter politics. I want to help the ill, kids who cannot afford to go to school, differently-abled kids and cancer patients,” Sadhna told ANI.

Asserting that she has always helped the party on political front from backdoors, Sadhna said Mulayam did not want her to come to the light.

“I have given him advice on political and social front. I have given him advice on family as well. I have kept the family united. Dharmendra and Akhilesh have been made MPs…I have done all these but in a hidden manner,” she added.

Reacting on the allegations that she was behind the Samajwadi Party feud, Sadhna said time has done everything and no one is to be blamed for it.

“I have given time to everyone.be it Professor (Ram Gopal Yadav) or his children, Dharmendra, Tipu or the daughter-in-laws. I have considered all as a family. I always wanted to give credit to Netaji. I always thought I am able to do things because of him. People should not have got the courage otherwise to say so many things about me. I was brought up in a family where my father used to say that one should not publicise good work, but now time is different,” she added.
