by LUCKNOW: A day after Uttar Pradesh labour minister Swami Prasad Maurya resigned from the cabinet, along with four others, another senior minister – Dara Singh Chauhan – quit the ministry.
Chauhan, who held forest and environment portfolio, said he was forced to take this step because of negligence of the government towards dalits, backwards and farmers.
