Yadav's petition was against an order of the state building construction department asking him to vacate his bungalow at 5, Deshratan Marg. The high court rejected his plea in October, 2018. Subsequently, the Supreme Court also rejected his petition and fined him Rs 50,000. After the apex court's order, Yadav finally vacated the government accommodation last Friday.  |
