Sanjay Nishad Demands Justice

"The administration-both the district and police administration-should be ashamed; we had informed them at 2 o'clock and have been here since then, yet only the SP has arrived so far. We will fight whatever battle is necessary to secure justice for the victim's family. Our parties and ideologies may differ, but we remain united for the sake of society. Police personnel who shielded the criminal should be suspended and prosecuted. Bulldozers should be used against them to demolish all their illegal assets, and the victim's family must be provided with compensation and security. Tomorrow at 9 AM, members of the Nishad Party from across the state will stage a sit-in protest in support of Vinod Sahni. We will protest against the police administration for their lapse..." said Nishad.
