Lucknow (Uttar Pradesh) [India], November 26 (ANI): Uttar Pradesh BJP President Bhupendra Singh Chaudhary on Tuesday criticised Samajwadi Party (SP) over Sambhal incident, saying that circumstances in Sambhal are in some way or the other caused by the Samajwadi Party’s internal fight for supremacy.
“The circumstances in Sambhal are in some way or the other caused by the Samajwadi Party’s internal fight for supremacy. It is because of the feeling of competition between the two families to gain leadership of the party. They provoked the people and caused this incident… However, the alertness of our party and the police made sure that the Samajwadi Party was not successful in their agenda… UP CM has announced an investigation into this matter. That will make it clear who is at fault and action will be taken against them…” said Chaudhary.
