BHUPENDRA PANDEY

UTTAR PRADESH CABINET minister Ashish Patel has accused the state special task force of "conspiring" against him and alleged a threat to his life from the agency. Patel belongs to the Apna Dal (Sonelal), a crucial ally of the BJP. His wife Anupriya Patel, who heads the party, is a union minister of state.

Ashish's claims follow allegations made by Anupriya's estranged sister Pallavi, a Samajwadi Party MLA, against the department under him. Ashish heads the Technical education, consumer protection, weights & measures ministry, and Pallavi has accused irregularities and corruption in promotion to 250 posts of Heads of Department across the state in the Technical education department.
