Chandrashekhar Azad faces convoy attack and personal allegations

Chandrashekhar Azad, Member of Parliament for Nagina and President of the Azad Samaj Party, has faced two distinct controversies.

In Barabanki, Uttar Pradesh, Azad reported that his convoy was attacked with stones and shoes near the Budhwal intersection while he was traveling to Gonda. He claimed that 7 to 8 vehicles were damaged and approximately 13 to 14 people were injured. Azad alleged that the attack occurred in the presence of police officers and has threatened state-wide protests if no action is taken by Monday. He has submitted formal complaints to the police regarding the incident.

Simultaneously, Rohini Ghawri, who claims to be the former partner of Chandrashekhar Azad, has returned to India from Switzerland after six years. Upon her arrival, she issued a statement targeting Azad, announcing her intention to tour the country to share her side of their past relationship. Ghawri expressed concerns for her safety, stating that if any harm comes to her, the responsibility would lie with Azad and the Bhim Army.
