, head of the party's IT department, has cornered the SP on this incident. Malviya wrote on 'X' that "After Ayodhya, now in Kannauj too, an SP leader has been arrested for attempting to rape a minor. During the SP government, the accused Nawab Singh Yadav was known as the mini CM. In Kannauj, he was recognized as Dimple Yadav's right hand and parliamentary representative. Will Akhilesh Yadav still demand a DNA test?"
