GG News Bureau

Agra, 5th Feb. Condemning the attack on All India Majlis-E-Ittehadul Muslimeen (AIMIM) president Asaduddin Owaisi’s vehicle in Uttar Pradesh, Samajwadi Party (SP) chief Akhilesh Yadav asked who is to blame for such violence.

Yadav said, “I condemn the attack on AIMIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi. There should be no violence in a democracy. If this violence has happened, then, after all, who is to blame for it? What was the intention behind the attack? Some people were caught but intentions should be clear. These people (BJP) claimed that criminals ran away. If criminals ran away, then who did this attack?”

Two men have been held allegedly for firing at the AIMIM chief’s convoy when he was leaving Meerut’s Kithoudh area for Delhi after poll campaigning, police informed.

Elections for 403 assembly constituencies in Uttar Pradesh are scheduled to be held in seven phases starting Feb 10. Voting will be held on February 10, 14, 20, 23, 27 and March 3 & 7. The counting of votes and result declaration will take place on March 10.
