Lucknow | Gorakhpur’s pediatrician Dr. Kafeel Khan, who was sacked from the job by Yogi Adityanath government, may contest the upcoming elections against Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath. Khan said several political parties are in touch with him.
Khan said that I have not decided yet, but I can contest against Yogi Adityanath. Several parties have approached me.
Azad Samaj Party president Chandrashekhar has already announced that he will contest against Yogi Adityanath.
Dr. Khan said that Chandrashekhar is a friend. We were together in prison. I will talk to him.
Despite an inquiry commission acquitting him of corruption and negligence charges, Kafeel Khan was sacked from his job last year.
The Allahabad High Court had ordered the release of Khan from jail in 2021 after the charges under the NSA were dropped.
