While on one hand all the parties have started their preparations for the assembly elections to be held next year in UP, on the other hand, the problems of Ajaz Samaj Party President and Nagina MP Chandrashekhar Azad have increased before the elections. In fact, Ghaziabad's MP-MLA court has issued a non-bailable warrant against Chandrashekhar. The matter is of assault and abuse.
Chandrashekhar Azad did not reach the court during the hearing of the case on Thursday. Complainant's lawyer Bhajanlal Gautam filed an application in the court saying that the hearing on the charge sheet in the case is going on and an arrest warrant has already been issued against Chandrashekhar. The lawyer demanded further legal action citing his continuous absence, after which the court issued a non-bailable warrant.
What happened in the court?
The case was heard in the MP-MLA court of Ghaziabad. When MP Chandrashekhar Azad was not present in the court, the complaining party drew the attention of the court towards his previous absence and the warrant issued earlier. The complainant's lawyer also demanded from the court an arrest warrant against Chandrashekhar Azad as well as action under sections 82 and 83 of CrPC. At present, the court has issued a non-bailable warrant against Chandrashekhar Azad in view of his absence during the hearing. Apart from this, an order has also been given to confiscate his property. This case was registered under sections 323 and 305 of the Indian Penal Code (IPC).
What is the whole matter of 2018?
This matter is of the year 2018. Complainant Dharmendra Kumar is a resident of Noorpur village of Mussoorie police station area of ​​Ghaziabad. He alleges that he had gone to attend a wedding ceremony organized at Vrindavan Garden in Sahibabad area. During this time, Chandrashekhar Azad had also reached there with his supporters. According to Dharmendra Kumar, he had questioned Chandrashekhar about the weapons he had with him. When Dharmendra asked why he had brought so many weapons, Chandrashekhar reportedly replied, “It is not visible, there are rifles.”
After this conversation, Chandrashekhar Azad, Gulzar Siddiqui, Pankaj Jatav and about 15 unknown people abused and beat him. Dharmendra Kumar had also alleged that he was threatened with death during the incident. Later, Pankaj Jatav's name was removed from this case. A charge sheet has been filed in the case by the police and further hearing on the same is going on in the court.
When was the warrant first issued?
A warrant has already been issued against Chandrashekhar Azad in this case. In May 2025, he appeared in the MP-MLA court of Ghaziabad to get the warrant recalled in the same case. At that time the court had fixed the next date for hearing the application filed on his behalf.
