Yogendra Yadav for Supreme Court-monitored SIT into Lakhimpur violence
The Hindu
He also demands immediate dismissal of Minister of State for Home Ajay Mishra from Union Cabinet
Social activist and Jai Kisan Andolan founder Yogendra Yadav on Monday demanded immediate dismissal of Minister of State for Home Ajay Mishra from the Union Cabinet and a probe by Supreme Court-monitored Special Investigation Team into Sunday’s violence in Lakhimpur district of Uttar Pradesh.
“We have seen how the ruling party has resorted to violence upon being terrified by the farmer stir in Lakhimpur where son of MoS of Home ran over protesting farmers. Our main demand is removal of Mr. Mishra for delivering provocative speech. He does not have the moral right to continue as Union MoS for Home for spreading violence,” said Mr. Yadav who was here to attend a Odia daily’s foundation day celebration.
“He should be booked under charges of spreading communal hatred and destroying the peace. His son and his friends should be booked under Section 302 of IPC. The probe should be conducted by Supreme Court-monitored SIT,” he said.
