Controversies
2026 RTO Confrontation and Viral Audio In March 2026, a purported audio recording surfaced on social media capturing a heated exchange between Shree. Aakya and RTO Inspector Sushil Upadhyay regarding a traffic challan issued to a heavy machinery vehicle (Poclain machine). In the recording, the MLA allegedly used abusive language and threatened the officer with administrative consequences.
Shree. Aakya dismissed the audio as a "politically motivated fabrication" and claimed it had been deliberately edited by his detractors to malign his reputation. Despite the controversy, no official order was issued to cancel the fine, and the incident drew criticism from opposition leaders for the alleged misuse of political influence.

He resigned from the party and contested as an independent candidate in the 2023 Assembly election.
