Lucknow, May 30 (IANS). Samajwadi Party MLA Ravidas Mehrotra, while reacting on many important political and national issues, raised questions on the Centre. He expressed his views ranging from the issue of infiltration in West Bengal to the politics of Karnataka and the NEET paper leak issue.
On the holding points being made to stop infiltrators in West Bengal, Ravidas Mehrotra told IANS that the Central Government and the Union Home Minister are responsible for whatever infiltrators come into the state.
