In a setback to the Mulayam Singh Yadav government in Uttar Pradesh, the Allahabad high court on Friday quashed a government notification abolishing the nine districts and four commissionerates created by the previous Mayawati government.
 
The notification was issued by the Yadav government on January 13 last.

A division bench comprising Chief Justice Tarun Chatterjee and Justice Ashok Bhushan passed the order on a bunch of writ petitions challenging the notification.

The petitioners had challenged the order on the ground that it was politically motivated.
