Uttar Pradesh Minister Kapil Aggarwal, who is facing three criminal cases, on Thursday surrendered before a special court here and was granted bail.

Aggarwal, the minister of state for vocational education and skill development, was booked in two cases of violation of prohibitory orders in New Mandi Police Station area and Kotwali Police Station area in 2016 and a case pertaining to disrupting rail services in 2012.

However, charges were framed against the BJP MLA from Muzaffarnagar in one of the cases wherein he took out a roadshow in Kotwali Police Station area and violated prohibitory orders.
