The Samajwadi Party is going through a rough patch with an ever-intensifying feud between Mulayam Singh Yadav and his brother Shivpal Yadav on the one side, and Akhilesh Yadav, and Mulayam's cousin Ram Gopal Yadav on the other.
Akhilesh and Shivpal have been engaged in a running feud over the last few of months, triggered by several incidents, including Amar Singh’s appointment as the national general secretary of the party, and Mulayam Singh replacing Akhilesh with his brother Shivpal Yadav as the state unit chief.

The political rivalry/family feud is not a good sign considering how close Uttar Pradesh is to an election, but when the drama is this engaging, it does inspire some humour. And thus Twitter unleashed all it had. From comparing the feud to Game of Thrones, to comparing it to Gangs of Wasseypur, to making fun of Mulayam Singh or Akhilesh Yadav, here are 20 hilariously accurate tweets about the Yadav family drama.

Yadav family battle is so passive aggressive that it can only end in Mulayam feeding Akhilesh samosas while wiping his tears
