UP Municipal Body Poll Results: SP Defeats BJP In Atiq Ahmed's Ward In Prayagraj By 2,000 Votes

UP Municipal Body Polls Results: Samajwadi Party has won from the mafia Atiq Ahmed's ward in the urban local body polls in Prayagraj.

UP Municipal Body Polls Results: In a big development, the Samajwadi Party has won from the mafia Atiq Ahmed's ward in the urban local body polls in Prayagraj days after the city witnessed massive chaos due to the murder of gangster-turned-politician Atiq Ahmed and his brother Ashraf in police custody. Samajwadi Party's Jahanara won by around 2000 votes crushing BJP's Sarita Hela in ward 44.

Notably, Atiq Ahmed's house and in-laws both come into this ward.

It is pertinent to note that the wife of Umesh Pal, who was murdered in the city by members of Atiq Ahmed's gang, had asked people to 'strengthen the hands' of Uttar Pradesh CM Yogi Aditgyanath.

The poster carried the images of Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath and BJP MLA Sidharth Nath Singh, reported PTI. It also has photos of Umesh Pal, Jaya Pal and Raju Pal. 

"At a public meeting of Adityanath, some people arrived with a poster that read in Hindi: "Umesh Pal, Raju Pal ke hatyaro ko mitti mein milane ke liye dhanyavad (thanks for decimating the killers of Umesh Pal and Raju Pal). Bulldozer Baba zindabad, Sidharth Nath Singh zindabad", Sidharth Nath Singh, the MLA from Allahabad West, said, as quoted by PTI.
