Prior to joining BJP in 2014, Jayesh Patel had contested
the state Assembly election twice as Congress candidate against sitting BJP MLA Madhu Srivastav and lost on both the occasions.

Before his arrest last night, police recovered a video, which was purportedly recorded a day before the FIR was lodged.

In the video, which went viral a few days back, Patel is seen as saying that he would be in trouble if a case is registered against him.
Meanwhile, the Parul University, in a statement issued today, said that the allegations against Jayesh Patel are individual in nature.
