Lucknow, July 29 (IBNS): Giving blow to the Samajwadi Party, two MLCs have quit the party and even the Legislative Council.

The two leaders who resigned the party are Bukkal Nawab and Yashwant Singh.

Former UP Chief Miniter Akhiesh Yadav has blamed the BJP for the resignation of party leaders.

Yadav said the BJP is indulging in 'political corruption'.

Speaking to ETV, Nawab said, “I have handed in my resignation to Sabhapati Ramesh Yadav. If get an invite from the BJP, I will definitely consider it. All I wish for is Ram Temple construction in Ayodhya. I will donate Rs 10 lakh and a gold mukut (crown) for Ram Lalla. Yashwant Singh has resigned and I hope very soon Madhukar Jaitely ji will also resign.”

BJP President Amit Shah arrived in Lucknow on Saturday.
