Bahujan Samaj Party supremo Mayawati blamed the Akhilesh Yadav Government for the death of two women during the party’s rally on occasion of the 10th death anniversary of founder member Kanshi Ram, at Kanshi Ram memorial on Sunday. She has demanded action against the erring officials instead of giving any compensation to the victims.
“The Samajwadi Party Government is fully responsible for the death and by announcing Rstwo lakh as compensation for the family members has just poured salt on their grief,” asserted the BSP supremo. The State Government has announced an ex-gratia payment of Rs2 lakh for the family of two deceased women in the rally, the BSP had announced Rs5 lakh each. The Government also directed to provide free medical facilities to those injured in the mishap.
Demanding action against the district and police officials responsible for Sunday’s incident during the rally, Mayawati in a statement released here on Monday morning said that people of the State have all right to get all security and people will not forgive Government for it’s failure to provide the same during BSP’s rally which cost two lives.
