In a dramatic turn of events, Samajwadi Party MLA Pooja Pal has been expelled from the party following her commendation of Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath's 'zero tolerance policy' against crime.

Party chief Akhilesh Yadav cited anti-party activities and indiscipline as the reasons behind her removal, asserting that her actions caused significant harm to the party.

Despite the expulsion, Pal resolutely stood by her initial praise for Adityanath, stressing his governance has delivered justice to many, including herself, after tragic incidents such as the murder of her husband.
