Forcibly evicted & targeted due to caste, claims Udit Raj
The Morning Standard
|October 25, 2025
CONGRESS leader and former MP Udit Raj on Friday alleged that his family was forcibly evicted from their government accommodation in Pandara Park, New Delhi, and claimed the action was driven by castebased targeting.
The bungalow had been allotted to his wife, Seema Raj, an Indian Revenue Service (IRS) officer who retired earlier this year.
Raj said the eviction took place despite the matter being sub judice. "We are removing our household items ourselves to keep them safe, but officials are forcibly intervening. The court date is October 28, and the ministry has already been served a notice, yet items are being thrown out of my house.
We are paying the price for raising our voice for Dalits and backward classes," he posted on X, sharing videos of household goods being moved out.
