Samajwadi Party president Akhilesh Yadav has said that his party`s legal cell will lodge an FIR against Amit Malviya, in-charge of BJP`s IT department for allegedly spreading misinformation through his tweets to malign the image of the party leadership. Amit Malviya had tweeted a photograph of Akhilesh Yadav along with his wife Dimple, former Uttar Pradesh Minister Abhishek Misra and MLC Pushparaj Jain among others.

The caption of the photo said, "In 2015, Akhilesh Yadav had led a delegation to Grasse in France on grounds that a perfume park has to come up in Kannauj. In this photograph, his perfume businessman friend can be seen from whose house stacks of currency notes were found buried under the floor and hidden inside the walls. This was the wealth that was robbed from the people of UP."
