Hailing the revocation of the Lok Sabha membership suspension of Congress leader Rahul Gandhi, Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav on August 7 said he hoped that the Uttar Pradesh Assembly membership of party leader Mohammad Azam Khan and his son Abdulla Azam too will be restored.
The Lok Sabha membership of Mr. Gandhi was restored on Monday, days after the Supreme Court stayed his conviction in a defamation case.
The Lok Sabha Secretariat issued a notification announcing that his disqualification has been revoked and his membership restored.
