The Communist Party of India State Secretary Dr Girish took a jibe at Prime Minister Narendra Modi, saying saving criminals and taking a dip in the Ganga to wash sin would not work now.
“If PM Modi wants to save his party from public ire, then he would have to remove Union Minister of State for Home Ajay Mishra Teni whose name has surfaced in the Lakhimpur Kheri case,” he said.
Girish alleged that the Union minister hatched a conspiracy to murder of farmers and used his ministerial power to destroy the evidence against him and his son.
He said a big question had come up of the continuance of Teni as Union minister when the SIT indicted 13 persons, including Teni’s son, for murder conspiracy, murderous assault and under Arms Act and CJM court granted permission for it.
“The Union minister threatened the farmers to teach them a lesson to remember for life long. He later indulged in holding the farmers responsible in the incident and saving the skin of his son and others involved in the murder of the farmers,” he said.
