UP Minister’s Car Towed from Assembly Premises Over Traffic Violation
During the Monsoon session of the Uttar Pradesh Assembly, Cabinet Minister Sanjay Nishad’s car was towed by traffic police for being parked in a no-parking zone inside the assembly premises.
The incident occurred on Thursday when Nishad’s white Toyota Fortuner, parked by his driver within the complex, caused a traffic bottleneck. The traffic authorities acted promptly, calling a crane to tow the vehicle. A video of the incident has since gone viral on social media.
Sanjay Nishad, the National President of the Nishad Party and Minister of Fisheries, assumed office as a Cabinet Minister on March 25, 2022.
Meanwhile, the monsoon session saw discussions on several key state issues. On Thursday, the last day of the session, four Bills including the Shri Banke Bihari Temple Trust Bill, 2025, were passed.
Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath also highlighted his government’s achievements, claiming that the state now enjoys a “fear-free environment.” He presented a detailed report on his administration’s performance since 2017, covering major milestones in law and order, development, and governance.
