Khan, his wife Dr. Tanzeen Fatima, and his younger son Abdullah Azam have resigned from all positions with the trust.
Abdullah, who is in Rampur jail along with his father, Azam Khan, appeared in court via video conferencing.
The case was related to alleged objectionable remarks made during the 2019 Lok Sabha election campaign.
Additional District and Sessions Judge II (MP-MLA Court) Alok Verma acquitted Azam Khan citing a lack of concrete evidence.
Samajwadi Party leader Mohamnad Azam Khan met party president Akhilesh Yadav at his residence on Friday.
A senior police officer here on Sunday confirmed that, "Azam Khan's Y-category security was restored on Friday evening. Guards and gunmen have been deployed around him since Saturday morning."
Rajbhar noted that Akhilesh Yadav didn't visit the veteran Samajwadi Party leader even once during his 23-month-long incarceration in jail. Now that Khan is released from jail, he remembered him.
The Samajwadi Party president met the veteran party leader for the first time after Khan’s release from jail a fortnight ago.
After spending nearly 23 months in jail, the veteran Samajwadi Party leader left for Rampur with a convoy.
The SP chief said,'' The BJP, the Rampur MLA, and a retired officer who is receiving extension after extension will not be allowed to commit injustice''. He said that ''today is a happy day for all of us'', and expressed the hope that all the cases against Azam Khan will be dismissed in the future.
