SP chief whip resigns amid cross voting fear in 15 Rajya Sabha seat voting

Voting is underway for 15 Rajya Sabha seats across Uttar Pradesh, Himachal Pradesh, and Karnataka, with 18 candidates vying for these positions. Amid the electoral process, SP Chief Whip and MLA Manoj Kumar Pandey's resignation from the party has sparked speculations of potential cross voting in Uttar Pradesh. The last-minute entry of BJP's candidate, Sanjay Seth, on the final day of nomination has added a layer of complexity to the electoral landscape, raising concerns within the SP regarding the integrity of their vote calculations.

With elections being held for 10 seats in Uttar Pradesh, 4 in Karnataka, and 1 in Himachal Pradesh, the possibility of cross voting looms large across all three states due to the surplus of candidates. Suspense surrounds the allegiance of 8 Samajwadi Party MLAs in Uttar Pradesh, further heightening tensions surrounding the voting process. The situation underscores the significance of these elections, especially considering the vacant Rajya Sabha seats across multiple states.
