Azam Khan Meets Akhilesh Yadav in Lucknow as SP Projects Unity

Party leaders cast the encounter as a message of resilience to quell rift talk.

Overview

  • The meeting at Akhilesh Yadav’s residence lasted roughly 30–45 minutes, with Azam Khan’s son Abdullah Azam also in attendance.
  • Akhilesh posted photos and an emotional note on X, calling the get-together a shared legacy of their relationship.
  • Azam Khan said the purpose was to signal resilience, justice and change, reflecting on nearly two years in jail and colleagues still behind bars.
  • An MP/MLA court in Lucknow acquitted Azam Khan the same day in a case involving alleged misuse of his letterhead to defame the RSS.
  • Khan rejected the “land mafia” label, pointing to his lack of a Lucknow bungalow, as the show of unity coincided with Bihar voting where he is listed as a star campaigner.
