Response to Critics
Yadav defended his actions, highlighting that the altercation was provoked by personal remarks directed at him. He asserted, “There were police and commandos with us.

Previous Controversies
This is not the first time Yadav has courted controversy. In November last year, he faced allegations of organizing rave parties in Noida, where nine poisonous snakes were discovered during a police raid. The case against Yadav stemmed from a complaint filed by an official of People for Animals.
