Punjab Congress chief Navjot Singh Sidhu and Shiromani Akali Dal Member of Parliament Harsimrat Kaur visited victims of Sunday’s violence at Uttar Pradesh’s Lakhimpur Kheri on Friday.
Sidhu vowed to fast unto death until Union Minister Ajay Kumar Mishra’s son Ashish Mishra is detained. Sidhu made the announcement when he was at the house of a journalist, Raman Kashyap, who was among eight people killed in the violence.
Ashish Mishra has been booked for the violence and has been summoned for questioning by Uttar Pradesh Police.
Police have called him for questioning on Saturday because he skipped their last summons
Ajay Mishra ‘Teni’, Minister of State for Home Affairs, maintains his son is innocent and claims it’s a conspiracy. He has so far ignored calls for resignation from the union council of ministers over the incident.
