SP MLA Indrajeet Saroj booked in Kaushambi following attack allegations

An FIR has been registered against Samajwadi Party (SP) national general secretary and Manjhanpur MLA Indrajeet Saroj, along with four others and hundreds of unidentified supporters, in the Kaushambi district of Uttar Pradesh.

The complaint was filed by BJP leader and Manjhanpur Municipal Council President Virendra Saroj. He alleged that on Friday, November 6, while traveling to Prayagraj, his vehicle was surrounded near Myohar village in the Karari police station area. The complainant accused the MLA and his supporters of using abusive language, shouting slogans against the BJP, and attempting to attack him and his security guard with intent to kill.

Superintendent of Police Satyanarayan Prajapat confirmed that the case has been registered under several sections of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS), including acts endangering personal safety, rioting, intentional insult to provoke breach of peace, and wrongful restraint. While police are investigating the matter, SP leaders have dismissed the allegations as baseless political stunts.
