It was a rare sight after the election. The politicians who always ridiculed each other and abused each other were seen exchanging pleasantries.
It looked as if Mulayam was very desperate to meet Modi and give him some message. Even Akhilesh wanted some kind of a patch up with Modi.
They have to meet him as he is poised to rule the country for another two terms. There is no other go. They have to surrender.
Rising above electoral bitterness and putting on the back burner their slanging matches during Uttar Pradesh campaign, Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh and his father Mulayam attended the swearing in ceremony of Yogi Adityanath today.
After the the nearly 90-minute event at Kanshiram Smriti Upvan, the father-son duo moved towards Prime Minister Narendra Modi and were seen exchanging pleasantries.
Reflecting warmth, Modi shook hands with Akhilesh and patted him on his shoulder.
He also held the hands of Mulayam, who was seen whispering something to Modi.
And the Prime Minister was all ears. That is Modi .
