SP Workers Submit Protest Letter Against BJP Leaders In Varanasi

Intro

Varanasi, July 9, 2026: Samajwadi Party workers submitted a protest letter to the Deputy Commissioner of Police in Varanasi, seeking action against Minister Arvind Jaiswal and BJP MP Nishikant Dubey over alleged objectionable remarks.

The workers said the alleged remarks had hurt party supporters and demanded that police examine the complaint and take legal action where required. They avoided allowing the issue to remain only a verbal political exchange and placed their objection formally before the police.

Key Details

The protest letter demanded registration of an FIR or other appropriate action after inquiry. SP workers said the remarks should not be repeated in public discourse and warned that they would take the issue to the streets if action was not taken.

The complaint follows an earlier local political row in which SP workers had sought action over alleged remarks targeting Akhilesh Yadav. Dalimss News had previously reported on SP workers seeking an FIR against a BJP MP over remarks on Akhilesh Yadav.

Party workers said political criticism should remain within democratic limits. Police are expected to examine the written complaint and decide further steps based on the law and available material.

Local Impact

The issue has added fresh heat to SP-BJP politics in Varanasi. Political workers in the city often respond quickly when remarks involving senior leaders become public talking points, and such complaints can lead to demonstrations if not handled with restraint.

For residents, the larger concern is that political disagreement should not disturb traffic, markets or daily movement. Police will need to balance the right to protest with public order if the matter escalates.

What Happens Next

SP workers are waiting for police response to their letter. If no action is taken, they may organise a wider protest. Any legal step will depend on examination of the complaint, statements and material submitted by the workers.
