A sessions court in Surat, Gujarat, on Monday rejected the temporary bail plea of self-styled godman Asaram's son Narayan Sai.

Sai, who is currently in jail in a rape case, moved a court in Surat on Thursday last week seeking four-week temporary bail to contest the upcoming assembly elections in Uttar Pradesh.

According to his lawyer Kuldeepsinh Jadav, Narayan Sai is one of the founders of Ojaswi Party in Uttar Pradesh and he could contest from two seats - Sahibabad and Shivpur constituencies in Ghaziabad and Varanasi Varanasi districts respectively .
