SP’s allegation: BJP is nervous
Reacting to this entire matter, Samajwadi Party leader Udayveer Singh said that this case is part of a political conspiracy in view of the Milkipur by-election. He alleged that the BJP, frightened by the growing popularity of Awadhesh Prasad, has registered this case by misusing the police and administration. Singh said that the BJP is misusing power and targeting politically active people. He also claimed that there should be an impartial investigation of this case, and action should be taken only if any facts come to light in the investigation.
BJP’s response
At the same time, BJP leader Manish Shukla launched a scathing attack on the Samajwadi Party and Ajit Prasad, saying that whenever the political power of the SP increases, their leaders are found involved in criminal activities. Shukla said that such incidents at a holy place like Ayodhya are highly condemnable, and the BJP government of Uttar Pradesh will ensure the implementation of the law, no matter who the accused is. Shukla also alleged that Akhilesh Yadav used to advocate for the release of terrorists while he was the Chief Minister, and now his MP’s son has been accused of serious charges of extortion and assault. The police have registered an FIR, and strict action will be taken against the culprits.
