Agra, Oct 5 (IBNS): For the first time after receiving a crushing defeat in the 2017 Uttar Pradesh assembly election, the Samajwadi Party (SP) will hold a national meeting in Agra on Thursday, media reports said.

The meeting will be held at the Central Telegraph ground in Agra Cantonment.

Founding leader of the Samajwadi Party, Mulayam Singh Yadav, is likely to attend the party meeting, who has rubbished any speculation of floating a separate party though admitted his differences with his son, Akhilesh Yadav.

Former UP chief minister, Akhilesh Yadav, got himself into a bitter power tussle in the party before the 2017 assembly election in the state, to establish his strong hold in the party.

However, the SP, which had forged an alliance with the Congress to contest the assembly election 2017, was reduced to only 50 odd seats, while the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) swept the poll bagging 325 out 403 seats.
