Now, the KGMU staff have threatened to go on protest following the police’s failure to register an FIR over the alleged vandalism. Sources in the BJP said Aparna was likely eyeing a larger role in the party or a ticket to contest the 2027 UP Assembly elections. Ahead of the 2022 Assembly elections, Aparna made the switch, saying she was influenced by Modi’s leadership and the BJP’s policies. Reacting to the development at the time, SP chief Akhilesh Yadav said he was happy that “the party’s socialist ideology is spreading”. After the ruckus at KGMU, Aparna met the CM.
