New Delhi: Samajwadi Party founder and former Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Mulayam Singh Yadav, 82, passed away on Monday 2022 at Medanta Hospital, Gurugram.

Mulayam’s son and former Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadav said, as per The Hindu report.

Mulayam Singh Yadav was undergoing treatment at the Medanta Hospital since August 22 and was shifted to the ICU on October 2.

He was quite critical since then and was being treated in the ICU by a comprehensive team of specialists.

An astute politician, Mulayam Singh Yadav blazed a new trail by putting backward castes at the centre of Uttar Pradesh politics and served as the Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister three times (1989-91, 1993-95, and 2003-2007).

He is survived by two sons, Akhilesh and Prateek.
