Uttar Pradesh Congress chief Ajay Rai said Chaudhary has been given 24 hours to respond to the allegations. "In view of the allegations that have come against Yunus Chaudhary, he has been removed from the party's Baghpat District President post. he has been given a notice of 24 hours to respond to the allegations against him and failing to do so, we will take action against him. We don't tolerate such things...strict action will be taken," Rai said.
