The Samajwadi Party (SP) has kicked out Pooja Pal, who was an MLA for Chail. This is a big political change that happened before the polls. Soon after the decision was made, Pal openly praised Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, saying that he had done the right thing by bringing Atiq Ahmed, a notorious gangster-turned-politician, to justice.
Pooja Pal told the media after she was kicked out, “Yogi ji ne insaaf dilaya…” “Pehle ke sarkaron ne jo nahi kiya, wo aaj hua hai.” “Jogi ji did what other governments couldn’t do; today it was done.” Because she has been with the SP for a long time, her comment has caused political waves.
A Long Fight for Fair Treatment
Pooja Pal’s political journey is deeply connected to the tragedy in her personal life. Her ex-Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) MLA husband, Raju Pal, was killed in 2005 in a shocking case that shook Uttar Pradesh politics. The main suspects were named as Atiq Ahmed and his helpers.
Pooja Pal said for years that justice was held up because Ahmed was protected by the government. She does say, though, that when the BJP government was led by Yogi Adityanath, strong legal action was taken, which made progress in the well-known case.
From praise to guesses about politics
People are guessing what her political future will be since she has shown open respect for CM Yogi Adityanath. Analysts think that her recent actions could mean that she is moving toward the BJP or taking a political road on her own that fits with Yogi’s law-and-order message.
Politicians also point out that Pal’s support comes at a time when Yogi Adityanath’s government has made a name for itself by taking tough action against organized crime in the state. For example, the government has killed several mafia leaders and seized their property.
The Samajwadi Party’s Quiet
The Samajwadi Party has not yet given a full reason for Pooja Pal’s removal. There has been no public statement from the party, but people inside the party say that there are “disciplinary reasons” and “internal differences.” But the move has shown that there are still problems within the party as it gets ready for the next election.
How People Reacted
People on social media have had different reactions. Supporters of Yogi Adityanath have praised Pal’s speech as an unusually positive look at the state government’s work on law and order by an opposition leader. Meanwhile, SP supporters have said bad things about her comments, seeing them as going against party ideas.
Pooja Pal is still in the news even though her political future is unclear. Her speech has already changed the way people in Uttar Pradesh talk about justice, government, and party loyalty, whether she officially joins the BJP or goes her own way.
