The Samajwadi Party has secured victory twice on the Phulpur Lok Sabha seat in past elections. Now, as the Lok Sabha elections approach again, with an alliance with the Congress, the Phulpur parliamentary seat is in the account of the Samajwadi Party. The candidacy for this seat has seen interest from former Members of Parliament, legislators who have contested previous elections, and some party officials. The name of former MP Dharmendra Yadav has also surfaced in this context.
