Lucknow: Jai Prakash Narayan International Centre (JPNIC) has been sealed, barricaded and the police force has been deployed ahead of Samajwadi Party (SP) chief Akhilesh Yadav's scheduled visit on the birth anniversary of Jayaprakash Narayan on Friday.
Akhilesh Yadav went to JPNIC on Thursday evening after the Lucknow Development Authority (LDA) refused to grant him permission to visit the site on Friday for the freedom fighter's birth anniversary, citing security concerns.
