Mayawati has set a condition for Akash Anand's return: Ashok risked his son-in-law's political career, and now he must retire.

Mayawati has set a new condition for Akash Anand's return to the BSP. She has advised him to retire from politics, accusing former Rajya Sabha MP Ashok Siddharth of working for personal gain. Akash Anand can only return to the BSP if this condition is fulfilled. Akash Anand is Ashok Siddharth's son-in-law. Mayawati had removed her nephew Akash Anand from his position on September 3, 2026. He was a common supporter in the party.
