Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav said he was not allowed to fly to Muzzafarnagar as his chopper was stopped from taking off in Delhi. He alleged the "desperate" Bharatiya Janata Party's (BJP) conspiracy behind the incident.

Akhilesh said, "My helicopter has been stopped in Delhi and is not being allowed to fly to Muzaffarnagar. No reason has been provided for doing so...whereas a top BJP leader has just flown from here," Akhilesh Yadav said.

"This is a desperate conspiracy by the losing BJP. People understand everything..." Akhilesh Yadav added.
