Summary:
In relief for Rampur MP Azam Khan, Allahabad High Court on Wednesday put a stay on 29 FIRs registered against the Samajwadi Party leader. However, the bench headed by Justice Manoj Mishra and Justice Manju Rani refused to quash the cases pending against Azam Khan. The farmers alleged Azam Khan of grabbing their land during the Samajwadi Party rule in Uttar Pradesh. Khan has linked the action against him in the university cases to upcoming assembly bypolls in the state. Authorities claim that the gate of Mohammad Ali Jauhar University, established by Khan in 2006, is built on government land..
