Akhilesh Yadav's first poll campaign triggers controversy
The controversy broke as he shared the stage at his first rally with Gayatri Prajapati, a controversial minister he had sacked for corruption.
He was forced to take back Prajapati on father Mulayam Singh Yadav's insistence.
Not only did he shared the stage but asked for votes on behalf of Prajapati.
Soon after this, the BJP questioned Yadav whether Gayatri Prajapati is the brand ambassador of the UP CM.
