Both Apna Dal (K) and AIMIM are making their Lok Sabha poll debuts in Uttar Pradesh. They have contested a fraction of the Assembly seats in the state in the past, eating into votes of big parties in a few.
Patel while talking to PTI videos said that their PDM Nyay Morcha, in which PDM stands for Picchda, Dalit and Muslim, has given an alternative to people against the government and the "big people" of the opposition who are continuously ignoring public sentiments.
