Addressing the inaugural session of the party's two-day convention, Akhilesh said that his party had taken the historic decision of allying with a party that follows Ambedkar's ideology.
"We made an effort to bring the ideology of Lohia and Ambedkar on one platform and we wanted a big victory for our effort but those in power misused their authority and thwarted our efforts," he said.
He further said that in 2022, he made an effort to bring like-minded parties on one platform but though the party increased its vote percentage, it could not ensure its victory.
"However, one thing is clear-it is only the Samajwadi Party that can stop communal forces in the future," he said.
Akhilesh Yadav listed the achievements of his regime and said that the BJP government had not done anything beyond what his government had done.
Earlier, Naresh Uttam Patel was unanimously elected as state party president for the second consecutive term.
SP MP Prof Ram Gopal Yadav announced his election.
