Azad Samaj Party To Field Candidates In All UP By-Election Seats, Says Chandrashekhar Azad

Prayagraj: Chandrashekhar Azad Ravan, the MP from Nagina and president of the Azad Samaj Party, visited Prayagraj on Saturday. He met with party workers to discuss the upcoming by-election for the Phulpur assembly seat. He announced that his party plans to contest all 10 assembly seats in the by-elections.

Chandrashekhar explained that the Azad Samaj Party did not contest all seats in the 2024 Lok Sabha elections due to national interest. However, from 2022 to 2024, the party has been preparing in Uttar Pradesh. The party organization has now decided to contest strongly in all 10 by-election seats. To support this effort, they have been engaging with workers for the Phulpur Assembly by-election.

Chandrashekhar stated that they will prepare booth and sector workers through conferences for the by-elections. The party aims to fight these elections strongly with the support of its organization and workers. Addressing the nameplate controversy on Kavad Yatra routes, he criticized the government for covering mosques and tombs with cloth along the routes, arguing that religious places should remain uncovered and that the government should focus on improving law and order instead.

He criticized the UP government, citing incidents like the rape and murder of a two-and-a-half-year-old girl in Meerut and open gunfire in Ghaziabad, claiming the government is failing to maintain justice and order. He accused the BJP of setting political agendas and warned that the people of the state would not forgive them.

Chandrashekhar also expressed frustration at not being allowed to speak in parliament, despite being elected by the people. He vowed to continue protesting against any injustice done to his people.
