Leaves of all Uttar Pradesh police personnel have been cancelled by the state authorities in view of the upcoming assembly by-polls and urban civic body elections.
In Uttar Pradesh, the upcoming bypolls are going to be held for two Assembly seats and one Lok Sabha seat. This election will prove to be a litmus test for both the ruling BJP and principal Opposition parties like the Congress, Bahujan Samaj .
The Khatauli Assembly constituency will go for bypoll as BJP MLA Vikram Singh Saini was disqualified after his recent conviction in a case related to the 2013 Muzaffarnagar riots.
