Sanjay Rajbhar, son of SP leader Ramachal Rajbhar, faces an FIR for alleged assault and theft of documents in Ambedkar Nagar.
The police in Ambedkar Nagar have registered an FIR against Sanjay Rajbhar, the son of Samajwadi Party National General Secretary and former minister Ramachal Rajbhar, following serious allegations of physical assault and criminal intimidation.
The Incident: Assault and Forced Seizure
According to the complaint, the incident took place on October 27. Sanjay Rajbhar, who currently serves as the manager of Bhanmati Smarak Mahavidyalaya, allegedly entered a local shop and physically attacked the complainant. The accusations do not stop at physical violence; it is alleged that Rajbhar forcibly seized land-related documents and the keys to a vehicle from the victim.
Adding to the gravity of the situation, the complainant has stated that Sanjay Rajbhar issued threats against his life during the encounter. Following the complaint, the police have officially initiated an investigation to uncover the truth behind the clash.
Police officials have confirmed that the investigation is currently ongoing and the validity of the allegations will be determined based on the evidence collected during the probe.
A History of Controversies
This is not the first time the family of Ramachal Rajbhar, a seasoned politician and six-time MLA, has found itself in the eye of a legal storm. The former minister has a history of allegations spanning several years.
Disproportionate Assets Case
During his time as a minister in the BSP government, Ramachal Rajbhar was accused of accumulating assets that were disproportionate to his known sources of income. This led to a complaint being lodged with the Lokayukta in 2012. Following an investigation, the Lokayukta recommended the filing of a formal case in 2013.
Land Dispute and Firing Allegations
More recently, in June 2026, Ramachal Rajbhar was embroiled in a land dispute in Rukunuddinpur Bangawan, situated in the Akbarpur area. A complainant named Radheshyam Yadav alleged that after he gained possession of the land via a court order, Rajbhar and his supporters attempted to forcibly re-occupy the property. The complaint further alleged that shots were fired during the confrontation.
At the time of those allegations, Ramachal Rajbhar denied the claims, maintaining that the matter was sub-judice in the High Court.
Current Status of the Investigation
As authorities process the new case against Sanjay Rajbhar, the focus remains on the evidence gathered from the scene of the assault in Ambedkar Nagar. Further legal action will be taken pending the final results of the police investigation.
