All the incidents occurred within the past nine months. The fine has been paid by the Chief Minister. The news emerged after the state government initiated a 50% discount on pending traffic fines. Meanwhile, Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav’s vehicles have been fined 8 lakh rupees for overspeeding, prompting criticism against the BJP government.
