The
Allahabad High Court today dismissed petitions against Bahujan Samaj
party chief Ms Mayawati in the Taj Corridor case. The Lucknow bench of
the court also dismissed the petitions against her cabinet colleague
Naseemuddin Siddiqui. Passing the order, the bench comprising justices
Imtiyaz Murtaza and Ashwani Kumar Singh said all petitions were devoid
