Date:

Bulandshahr – During the horrific violence in Bulandshahr dictrict of Uttar Pradesh on Monday, which claimed the lives of a Police Inspector Subodh Kumar and a youth. Unfortunately, UP’s Chief Minister was enjoying a light and sound show, and the Deputy CMs were campaigning for the party in Rajasthan.

Twitteratis were angry when they witnessed the tweets of UP’s CM – Yogi Adityanath – on Monday around 10:00 pm, showing him attending the show in Gorakhpur, he was also seen on Tuesday attending a Kabbadi game with Chattisgarh’s CM Raman Singh.

At the same time, UP Deputy CMs Keshav Prasad Maurya and Dinesh Sharma were busy campaigning for their party in Rajashthan.

The careless attitude of the Yogi Government towards the situation angered the villagers and family of the slain police officer.

Kumar’s sister, Saroj Singh Chauhan alleged that her brother was killed through a planned conspiracy, as he was investigating the mob-lynching case of Mohammed Akhlaq, who was mob-lynched on 28 September 2015.

“My brother has been killed because he was investigating the Akhlaq murder case. This is a conspiracy. Why was my brother alone in his vehicle? Police are complacent in its role in the incident,” Chauhan said.

She also rejected the five million rupees of ex-gratia payment Yogi Government declared towards the family of the police officer, rather she has insisted to honor him as a ‘martyr’ and build a memorial in their village.

“What is this ‘gai-gai‘ (cow protection) our Chief Minister keeps uttering all the time? Why doesn’t he come on the ground and serve the cause of cow protection? It is my brother who has been killed,” she said.

My brother should be declared a martyr and a memorial must be made in his memory. What good is the 50,000 or 50 lakh rupees for us? We will return it. We want a martyr memorial in our village. I need nothing except honor for my brother,” she expressed angrily.

UP Police have identified the main conspirator as Yogesh Raj, a local Bajrang Dal activist. However, Police refuse to provide more details about the accused.

In the meanwhile, CM Yogi has ordered strict action to be taken against those who were involved in the cow-slaughter while completely ignoring those who killed the Police Inspector, senior Police official said.

A violence broke out in Bulandshahr on December 3 alleging Muslims of slaughtering cows and spreading the carcasses on the road, when the Police Inspector Kumar intervened to block the mob, his vehicle was burned and he was shot in the head.

Bulandshahr District Magistrate Anuj Jha told media, “Doctors have confirmed that Inspector Subodh Kumar died due to a bullet shot in his head. An SIT [special investigative team] has been formed to probe the matter. The groups that were protesting cattle slaughter attacked Inspector Subodh and also the police station.”
