Sambhal News: Cases Against MP Ziaur Rahman Faked By Yogi Govt, UP Police
Samajwadi Party president Akhilesh Yadav has accused the UP government of fabricating the cases against SP MP Ziaur Rahman in the Sambhal violence.
New Delhi: Samajwadi Party (SP) president Akhilesh Yadav has accused the government and police of faking stories about the Sambhal violence in Uttar Pradesh. Speaking to reporters in the Parliament complex on Tuesday, Yadav called the police's actions misleading and called the FIR against SP MP Ziaur Rahman Barq as false.
Speaking about the Sambhal incident, Yadav said, "Today, we are celebrating Constitution Day, but the real celebration will be when we actually follow the Constitution's path. We are true socialists. How can celebrations take place where lives have been lost? The government is to blame solely. If a survey has already been conducted, why conduct it again? The government wants to ensure the Opposition cannot reach there or raise their voices, which is why the internet has been shut down."

The SP chief alleged that party supporters were not allowed to cast their votes and that local officials were intimidating residents, even pointing guns at women.
