Sultanpur, UP:

Uttar Pradesh minister Mayankeshwar Sharan Singh on Saturday appeared before a court in Sultanpur in connection with a case related to the violation of Model Code of Conduct in 2017 and deposited Rs 500 fine, as ordered by the High Court, after which the proceedings against him were closed.

The minister of state for health, a five-time MLA from Tiloi Assembly Constituency, appeared in the court of Additional Chief Judicial Magistrate (III) Saima Siddiqui Jarrar Alam on the directions of the HC.

He filed an application for depositing the amount of fine and ending the case. The local court accepted his application and ordered to end the proceedings in the case.

Advocate Ravivansh Singh, who represented the minister, said the police had registered a case against Mr Singh and his 150 unidentified supporters for violating the Model Code of Conduct in Gauriganj Kotwali area of Amethi district during the 2017 assembly elections.

Police filed the charge sheet only against Mr Singh as the supporters could not be traced during investigation.

The lawyer said that taking cognisance of the chargesheet filed on March 18, 2019, the minister was summoned by ACJM III.

Mayankeshwar Sharan Singh challenged the order issued by the court and the chargesheet of the police in the High Court.

He said the High Court directed the court concerned to end the proceedings after he deposits the fine. In compliance with this order, Mr Singh reached the court on Saturday, where the ACJM III issued an order to deposit the fine and end trial.

"Jaiswal Has Run Ahead Of Gill": Ex-India Star's Massive T20 WC Verdict

Former India opener Aakash Chopra has suggested that Yashasvi Jaiswal is slightly ahead of Shubman Gill in the pecking order as captain Rohit Sharma's partner at the top in T20Is. Since making his debut last year, Jaiswal has been in stunning form in the shortest format of the game. Gill's form, on the other hand, has dipped since the ODI World Cup last year in India. With the T20 World Cup scheduled to be held later this year, Chopra feels Jaiswal will open the innings with Rohit during the tournament. "It's clear that Yashasvi Jaiswal has run ahead of Shubman Gill. Yashasvi is ahead in the two-horse race, Gill is lagging slightly behind.

Jaiswal helped India beat Afghanistan in the second T20I earlier this week, scoring a quickfire fifty. Considering his recent form across formats, Chopra emphasised that Jaiswal has ...
