Lucknow: The Congress has decided to support Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Mayawati if she brings the proposal for the trifurcation of the state.
According to party sources, the Congress has called for setting up a second State Reorganisation Committee (SRC) for the purpose.
In case the trifurcation of the state is done, Uttar Pradesh will be divided into three parts – Harit Pradesh, Bundelkhand and Purvanchal.
Notably, Congress general secretary Rahul Gandhi has already voiced his support for the creation of Bundelkhand.
Rashtriya Lok Dal (RLD) chief Ajit Singh has also been aiming for the creation of Bundelkhand.
Meanwhile, the state unit of the Congress is also in talks with Ajit Singh for a possible alliance with the RLD in the Uttar Pradesh elections.
