Samajwadi Party president Akhilesh Yadav on Tuesday took a dig at the BJP as he latched on to reports of Jewar MLA Dhirendra Singh suffering injuries in a cycle crash. Â
The 55-year-old BP legislator is currently hospitalised in Greater Noida. He had broken three bones in his left arm on Sunday evening after his cycle hit a water-filled pothole on a road in his constituency. Â
"Now, the BJP will say our MLA did not fall into the pothole but had gone deep into it for a detailed study," Yadav tweeted in Hindi. Â He also shared a news report of the incident along with a picture of a road with several potholes in it. Â
Singh, the two-time Jewar MLA, has not yet responded to Yadav's remark. Meanwhile, Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath on Tuesday called Singh to enquire about his health, according to the MLA's aides. Â
"The MLA underwent a surgery on Monday and is still in the hospital. He is expected to be discharged on Tuesday night. He is stable now," an aide told PTI. Â Singh is known for his contribution to negotiating the land acquisition in Jewar for the upcoming greenfield Noida International Airport.
He had hogged limelight over a decade ago in the wake of the Bhatta-Parsaul violence during the UPA rule at the Centre.Â
