Akhilesh Yadav, having set aside his family drama, is moving on to the next order of business ahead of the election: stapling together the alliance that he believes will help him counter rivals Mayawati and the BJP in Uttar Pradesh which begins voting next month. A deal with the Congress will be announced "in a day or two," he told NDTV today. The Congress pre-empted him, declaring the collaboration at a press conference in Delhi today, though it said the details are being finalized. Key among those: how many of the state's 403 seats will be allotted to the Congress and to another potential partner, Ajit Singh's RLD.
