Muzaffarnagar (Uttar Pradesh), Feb 3 Nearly 100 supporters, including former minister and now Azad Samaj Party (ASP) candidate from Purkazi constituency Uma Kiran, have been booked at the Chhapar police station for violating the model code of conduct and Covid-19 norms at a rally.

According to Chhapar police station officer, Ashutosh Kumar, charges under IPC sections 188, 269, 270 and provisions of the Epidemic Act have been slapped on the violators.
