A BJP leader closely associated with former prime minister Chandrashekhar's son Neeraj Shekhar has been booked for allegedly threatening a Dalit research scholar from Lucknow University, police said on Tuesday (June 10, 2025). According to police, the FIR was lodged late Monday (June 9, 2025) night at Ubhaon Police Station on the complaint of Deepak Kannaujia, a native of Turtipar village. Police said that in his complaint, Mr. Kannaujia, a scholar at the Lucknow University, alleged that BJP leader Alok Singh called him on May 21 and abused him and threatened to kill him. "Record this conversation if you want. I am not afraid of the administration or the law and order in Uttar Pradesh," Alok Singh said, according to the complaint. BJP's Bilthara Road area president Arun Kant Tiwari confirmed that Alok Singh is affiliated with the BJP and is a close relative of Neeraj Shekhar. Mr. Kannaujia alleged that Alok Singh had a longstanding political enmity with his family. He said his father, Kamlesh Kannaujia, died of a heart attack on October 31 last year due to the stress caused by repeated harassment. He said he was afraid Alok Singh might get his mother, who lives alone in the village, killed. Superintendent of Police Omveer Singh told PTI on Tuesday that an audio clip related to the incident had recently gone viral on social media. A preliminary inquiry was conducted by Rasra Circle Officer Alok Gupta, after which Alok Singh was booked under sections 352 (intentional insult) and 351(3) (criminal intimidation) of the BNS, and provisions of the Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes (Prevention of Atrocities) Act.

LU asst prof gets anticipatory bail on Pahalgam attack post
Lucknow: The Lucknow Bench of the Allahabad high court has granted interim anticipatory bail to Madri Kakoti, an assistant professor of linguistics at Lucknow University , for her controversial posts on social media after the Pahalgam terror attack. The order was passed by the vacation single bench of Justice Rajiv Singh on Monday. Kakoti's advocate SMH Rizvi said the main argument put forward on behalf of Prof. Kakoti was that she had no connection with any political party and neither had she ever participated in any protest-demonstration etc. Teacher and satirist Madri Kakoti, whose online avatar Dr Medusa has 1,50,000 followers on X, was charged on April 29 with sedition and causing disharmony through a social media post on the April 22 attack in Pahalgam. ABVP's Jati Shukla alias Manmohan Shukla had lodged an FIR with Hasanganj police station on April 28. Along with other sections in the said FIR, the police also imposed section 152 of BNS under which the punishment is up to life imprisonment. Lucknow University had issued Kakoti a show-cause notice after ABVP students staged a protest on campus. Protesters alleged the teacher's remark had been reposted by a Pak media handle, tarnishing India's and the university's reputation. They submitted a memorandum to the vice-chancellor, demanding action against her. The allegedly seditious post included a video in which Kakoti said that religious profiling before killing someone is terrorism, as is enquiring about religion before lynching.
