Actor and Samajwadi Party candidate from Lucknow Sanjay Dutt today hit the campaign trail with a valiant face,telling a gathering of youths he would be camping in the state capital now on and was ready to brave canes and bullets with the party workers to ride the cycle to Delhi. I have come to join my family. This cycle (SPs election symbol) is ours and we have to work together to take it to Delhi, Dutt said at a meet of his partys frontal youth organisations Lohia Vahini,Mulayam Singh Youth Brigade,Samajwadi Chhatra Sabha and SP Yuvajan Sabha. Earlier,SP president Mulayam Singh Yadav gave the young workers a few lessons on discipline and bravery,asking them to raise issues relating to people or nation during their poll campaign. SP general secretary Amar Singh,who was also present at the meet,hit out at the Third Front leaders for joining hands with BSP chief Mayawati. The Left,the Congress and Mulayam never had a truck with the BJP,which is communal in character. But,she (Mayawati) did it three times, Singh said. Naming Chandrababu Naidu and HD Deve Gowda,Singh said they had once been part of the BJP-led NDA and now they claimed to be secular. On his partys ties with the Congress,Singh said,Formation of a secular government is not possible without Sonia Gandhi and the future of a secular India is not possible without Mulayam Singh. Meanwhile,the SP today announced the candidature of Om Prakash Gupta,a former MLA from Sitapur,for Dhaurahra Lok Sabha constituency,where the Congress has fielded its sitting MP and Union minister Jitin Prasad.
