Newly appointed Rajya Sabha MP Dinesh Arya made sharp allegations against Girdhari Lal Sahu during his visit to Haldwani on Sunday, bringing the dispute involving Cabinet Minister Rekha Arya and her husband back into political focus.

Party workers welcomed Arya in Haldwani. During the visit, he spoke about the ongoing controversy surrounding Rekha Arya and Sahu, and questioned Sahu’s character.

Claim about Bareilly and Nainital

Arya claimed that Sahu had been externed from Bareilly. He further alleged that Sahu was staying in Nainital district for that reason.

Arya also said that people were well aware of Sahu’s character. These remarks were presented as allegations by the Rajya Sabha MP and were not established as a court finding in the available material.

The comments have added a new political dimension to the public dispute involving Rekha Arya and Girdhari Lal Sahu. The available report does not include a response from Sahu or Rekha Arya to the allegations.

Arya’s remarks on the Ankita Bhandari case

Arya also criticised the Opposition over the Ankita Bhandari case. He alleged that Opposition leaders were unnecessarily provoking the deceased woman’s family and using the sensitive matter for political gain.

The case remains a prominent subject in Uttarakhand’s political debate. Arya’s remarks linked the issue to his wider criticism of the Opposition, but further details about the specific actions or statements he was referring to is not yet available.

Political impact in Uttarakhand

Arya’s statements are likely to intensify discussion around the Rekha Arya–Girdhari Lal Sahu dispute. His visit to Haldwani therefore became significant not only because of the party welcome, but also because of the direct allegations made during the interaction with workers.

The next public development will depend on whether Sahu, Rekha Arya or Opposition leaders respond to Arya’s claims. No official legal or administrative confirmation of the Bareilly allegation is included in the available material.

Conclusion

Dinesh Arya has made serious allegations against Girdhari Lal Sahu in Haldwani and accused the Opposition of politicising the Ankita Bhandari case. The claims remain allegations in the available reporting, with no response or official confirmation provided.
