Mayawati expelled Ashok Siddharth from the BSP for anti-party activities, marking his second expulsion in 18 months.
Siddharth was removed from responsibilities in Karnataka, Odisha, and West Bengal due to repeated indiscipline, and his return to UP was called a conspiracy.

Siddharth, father-in-law of Akash Anand, was previously expelled in February 2025 and reinstated in September 2025.
