In a scathing critique, expelled Samajwadi Party MLA Pooja Pal has attacked the party for what she described as derogatory remarks about her personal life made by women leaders. Pal accused these leaders of attempting to elevate their standing by maligning her in front of party chief Akhilesh Yadav.

Pal explained to ANI that the criticism demonstrated a lack of self-respect among the Samajwadi Party members and questioned their comprehension of women's dignity. Objecting to allegations against her late husband Raju Pal, she defended his integrity, asserting he never worked for the controversial figure Atiq Ahmed.

Expressing support for BJP's UP chief minister, Pooja Pal praised Yogi Adityanath's 'zero tolerance' crime policy, which has improved the state's law enforcement. The controversy intensified after Pal wrote to the government demanding action against misleading claims surfacing against her, heightening tensions with her former party.
