New Delhi, March 31: Driven by the ambition of being the prime ministerial nominee in case a Third Front comes to the fore after the 2014 general elections, Samajwadi Party chief Mulayam Singh Yadav is pitching to play the big game with his lofty on-again, off-again expressions of support designed to keep the ruling UPA coalition on the edge.
As part of a plan to project himself as a national leader, Yadav, who supports the UPA from outside with his 22 MPs, has been at various times threatening to pull out, knowing well that his support has become crucial for the ruling coalition after the exit of the Trinamool Congress and the DMK in the past six months.
