Samajwadi Party chief Mulayam Singh Yadav will on Wednesday lead a cycle rally in Lucknow to protest against the Mayawati government.
Since April 19, SP activists have been staging hulla-bol rallies throughout the state to highlight the corruption in the government.
The cycle rally will be the highlight of the anti-Mayawati protests.
Thousands of SP activists are expected to converge from different parts of the state at the SP headquarters in Lucknow on Wednesday morning.
"Mulayam Singh will ride a bicycle with senior SP leaders in tow while thousands of party workers will raise anti-Mayawati slogans," said Ram Saran Das, the state party chief.
The administration is making extensive security arrangements to prevent untoward incidents.
"We cannot leave anything to chance, so we are making foolproof security arrangements," said District Magistrate Navneet Sehgal.
It will be the first time that Yadav would be in Lucknow since Mayawati got first information reports filed against him and other SP leaders and threatened to arrest them for unauthorisedly filming a private function of the ruling Bahujan Samaj Party.
A division bench of the Allahabad high court, however, has granted a stay on the arrest of Yadav, Amar Singh and six other SP leaders.
The court also took a serious view of the state of affairs in Uttar Pradesh following which Mayawati said, "No arrests will be made until the charges levelled in the FIRs are supported by courts."
