The Azam Khan (SP) – Jaya Prada (BJP) hostility has already acquired legendary proportions and both the leaders do not spare any opportunity to strike at each other.

The Election Commission had earlier cracked down on Azam Khan and barred him from campaigning for 72 hours after his derogatory comments against the actor.

The Election Commission had also pulled up Mayawati and Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath for their controversial speeches.

The EC, in its order, said it was convinced that both the leaders “made highly provocative speeches which has the tone and tenor to aggravate existing differences or create mutual hatred between different religious communities”.
