Patna: Taking a jibe at Kartik Kumar’s resignation BJP leader Sushil Kumar Modi on Thursday said that “This was the first wicket, many such will fall in the coming time.’

Sushil Modi allegedly said that Kartik Kumar had an arrest warrant and still he took oath as Law minister under Lalu Yadav’s presence. “Kartik Kumar resigned last night, he had an arrest warrant against him. Instead of surrendering he took the oath of office & was made law minister under Lalu Yadav’s pressure. This was the first wicket, many such will fall in the coming time” BJP leader said.
Earlier, Bihar Governor Phagu Chauhan accepted the resignation of Bihar Minister Kartikeya Singh, who was moved from the Ministry of Law to be the Sugarcane Industry Minister of the state.

Singh has an outstanding arrest warrant against him in a kidnapping case for which he was granted interim protection till September 1 by a Danapur court.
After reports of a warrant against Kartikeya Singh emerged, the Bihar BJP on August 17 demanded the Nitish Kumar government show courage and sack the minister with immediate effect.

The Additional charge of the Sugarcane Industries Department has been given to Revenue and Land Reforms Minister Alok Kumar Mehta, as Singh is no longer a member of the Council of Ministers.

Lucknow: Bhim Army chief Chandrashekhar Azad has decided to contest the UP elections 2022 against Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister and BJP Leader Yogi Adityanath. Bhim Army chief heads Azad Samaj Party.

Notably, the Bhim Army chief last week met Samajwadi Party (SP) chief Akhilesh Yadav. After meeting the Yadav scion, Azad ruled out any possibility of an alliance between Azad Samaj Party and SP for the upcoming Uttar Pradesh Assembly elections 2022.

Yogi Adityanath is also going to contest the assembly elections for the first time. He was a member of the Lok Sabha until he became the Chief Minister in 2017. Yogi was elected Lok Sabha MP from Gorakhpur for the first time in 1998. He won the Lok Sabha elections from Gorakhpur for 5 consecutive times. But after becoming the Chief Minister, he chose the path of Legislative Council.

Taking to twitter Azad tweeted, “Thank you very much. I have fought for last five years. I will still fight.”

Azad said that his party would not field its candidates in front of some people, including Shivpal Singh Yadav, Suheldev Bharatiya, Om Prakash Rajbhar, Rashtriya Lok Dal chief Jayant Chaudhary and Swami Prasad Maurya. He said that if Akhilesh Yadav contests the election, the party will not field a candidate in front of him.

Chandrashekhar Azad had said on Tuesday that even if the Samajwadi Party gives it 100 seats in the Uttar Pradesh assembly elections, he will not forge an alliance with it. Azad Samaj Party chief Chandrashekhar Azad said in a press conference in Greater Noida that his party will contest the elections alone in Uttar Pradesh and he has taken this decision after talks with the Samajwadi Party did not work out.

Elections for 403 assembly seats in Uttar Pradesh are to be held in seven phases. The first phase of polling is to be held on February 10. Voting will be held in UP in seven phases on February 10, 14, 20, 23, 27, and March 3, 7. While the counting of votes will take place on March 10.
