Lucknow, Madhya Pradesh government minister Vijay Shah has been embroiled in controversy over one of his statements. Minister Vijay Shah has given a controversial statement on Colonel Sofia Qureshi. All opposition parties including Congress, BSP have demanded action against minister Vijay Shah. However, seeing the controversy growing, minister Vijay Shah has apologized, but still the demand to dismiss him from the post of minister is getting stronger. In this sequence, Samajwadi Party national president and former Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadav has also strongly attacked the BJP minister.

SP chief Akhilesh Yadav took a dig at him and posted on x and wrote that the highly condemnable statement of a minister of Madhya Pradesh BJP is an insult not only to a high military woman officer, but to every woman and army of the country. This gentleman has always been the mouthpiece of the anti-women thinking of the BJP and its allies. Akhilesh Yadav said that a few years ago, he had obstructed the work of a reputed actress of the country. The SP chief said that the truth behind false announcements like BJP's Nari Shakti Vandan Abhiyan exposes the evil thoughts of such people.

Former Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadav said that such people should not become public representatives of even a street or locality, let alone a minister. The question is whether the BJP people will remove them themselves or the Nari Shakti and the public will unite against them. Let us tell you that the country is saluting the bravery of Colonel Sofia Qureshi after she gave a briefing on the retaliatory action against Pakistan after the terrorist attack in Pahalgam, Jammu and Kashmir. On the other hand, Madhya Pradesh minister Vijay Shah has given a controversial statement. His statement is being linked to Sofia Qureshi. The Congress has demanded that minister Vijay Shah be dismissed and a case of treason be registered against him.
