GHAZIPUR (UP): Defending NRHM scam accused Babu Singh Kushwaha, Samajwadi Party supremo Mulayam Singh Yadav today said he was “innocent” and sought support for his wife and party LS candidate from Ghazipur, Shivkanya Kushwaha.
“Kushwaha is innocent. Those who are guilty are outside (jail) and he is behind bars. Our party has fielded his wife Shivkanya Kushwaha as he is innocent,” Yadav said while addressing an election rally here.
“She has come here with a lot of trust in you all. Dont break that,” he said while appealing to voters to support Shivkanya, Babu Singh’s wife.
