Uttar Pradesh minister Mohsin Raza today accused Samajwadi Party leader Azam Khan of embezzling funds as a minister in the previous dispensation.
"Azam Khan has exhausted almost the entire fund during his tenure as a minister of Haj and Waqf departments," Raza, who has been declared elected unopposed to the state Legislative Council, alleged.
Addressing a BJP workers' meeting here, he accused Khan of grabbing the department's land and misappropriating funds for madrasas.
