Mainpuri/Uttar Pradesh: Uttar Pradesh Police booked 100 Samajwadi Party workers for allegedly damaging a Maharana Pratap statue here, Asian News International reported.

Police informed that the statue was damaged on Saturday when Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav held a roadshow here in support of his wife and Lok Sabha polls candidate Dimple Yadav.

Mainpuri Superintendent of Police Vinod Kumar said that after the roadshow, some of the party workers reached the statue and attempted to raise their party flag there. The officer said the police are examining CCTV footage.

A BJP worker, who claimed to be at the spot of the incident, told ANI that Samajwadi Party workers are aware that they are going to lose and cannot digest the imminent defeat.

He said that drunk SP goons went there and tried to damage the statue. Since they know they are going to lose, they are resorting to such tactics.

However, Dimple Yadav of Samajwadi Party won the Mainpuri parliamentary by-election in December 2022. She defeated Raghuraj Singh Shakya of the BJP by a 2,88,461-vote margin.

Mainpuri is considered a power bastion of the Samajwadi Party and was held by late party patriarch Mulayam Singh Yadav. The seat was vacated after his death on October 10, 2022.

In the 2019 general elections, the ‘Mahagatbadnhan’ partnered by Akhilesh Yadav’s SP and Mayawat’s BSP in Uttar Pradesh could win only 15 seats when BJP and its ally Apna Dal (S) won 64 of the 80 seats.
