Lalganj (Rae Bareli), Feb 13 (UNI) Asking the people to beware of the present Samajwadi Party government in Uttar Pradesh, Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) supremo and railways minister Lalu Prasad today solicited support for Congress President Sonia Gandhi in the coming state assembly polls.

''Only support to Mrs Gandhi in the assembly poll can change the scenario in UP,'' he claimed.

''Only a Congress government can fulfil the aspirations of the people of the state,'' he noted.

''People termed me idiot, when I advocated the name of Mrs Gandhi for the Prime minister's post..now they are realising, that I was correct,'' he added.
