Mainpuri (Uttar Pradesh), April 4 (IANS) Samajwadi Party (SP) chief minister Mulayam Singh Yadav Friday filed his nomination papers from the Mainpuri parliamentary constituency.
The incumbent MP from the seat, the former Uttar Pradesh chief minister is also contesting from Azamgarh this time.
Soon after filing his papers at the collectorate, Mulayam Singh claimed that his party would get good numbers in the Lok Sabha polls owing to the good performance of the SP government in the state.
