Senior socialist leader and Rajya Sabha MP Sharad Yadav on Saturday questioned the Election Commission's decision to grant the"Arrow"symbol to the Nitish Kumar-led faction of Janata Dal-United and vowed to fight it both legally and democratically.
"The decision has not meted out justice. The EC's decision is just asking the person who built the building to vacate it. My lawyers are looking into the matter and will soon take a call. Our fight will continue,"Yadav told reporters here at a press conference.
He was responding to the Commission's decision in which it granted the"Arrow"symbol to the Nitish Kumar-faction after a three-month battle between the two warring factions of the JD-U.
Yadav, a former President of the JD-U, said the EC's decision would not deter his fight to"save democracy"."We are not dismayed with this decision.
We knew the fate but it does not mean that we should end our fight. Our fight for party symbol is a legal battle but the real issue, for which we are fighting, is to save democracy.
