New Delhi, Dec 2 (IBNS): In an indirect attack on politician Amar Singh,Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadav on Friday said he could not decide whether the Samajwadi Party leader would be in the party or outside it.

Akhilesh Yadav speaking to NDTV's Barkha Dutt at the Hindustan Times Leadership Summit took fresh digs at
"Uncle" Amar Singh.

Returning (to party) his (Amar Singh's) behaviour, his  language and his experience should be such that it helps Samajwadi Party form the
next secular government, said Yadav taking a dig at Amar Singh.

I cannot speak more, he said, adding that "I cannot decide if he is in party or not."

"Am not the party state president that I will recommend something and send it to Netaji (father Mulayam Singh)," he said clearly indicating
that left to him he would have removed Amar Singh.

Uttar Pradesh will vote to elect a new assembly in the next couple of months.

Speaking on the issue of him being the party's CM candidate, Akhilesh said: "I can't say if I will be the Chief Ministerial candidate."
