Om Prakash Rajbhar, a minister from Uttar Pradesh, launched a scathing attack on SP president Akhilesh Yadav over the party's recent break from political consultancy I-PAC, hinting at a connection to a notorious coal scam in West Bengal.
Rajbhar's assertions suggest that the I-PAC, once employed by Mamata Banerjee for electoral strategy, had an ancillary mission commissioned for the Samajwadi Party in Uttar Pradesh, allegedly fueled by funds from an illicit coal scandal.
Despite SP leader Akhilesh Yadav attributing the split to financial distress, Rajbhar insists on a deeper financial scandal, challenging Yadav to address these incriminations substantively.
