Lucknow: There will be no injustice with anyone and no action will be taken under any pressure, Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath said Friday. He was referring to the Lakhimpur Kheri incident of violence in which eight people lost their lives. Among them were four farmers and a journalist. Since the incident, the opposition has demanded the arrest of Union Minister Ajay Mishra’s son Ajay. Yogi Adityanath said the government is going deep into the details of the incident.

“There is no place for violence in democracy. When the law is giving guarantee to secure everyone, there is no need to take it into one’s hands, whosoever they be,” Adityanath said while speaking to a news channel.

It was alleged that attempts are being made to save the minister’s son, Ashish. “There is no such video. We have issued numbers, and if anyone has evidence, they can upload it. All will be crystal clear. There will be no injustice with anyone. No one will be allowed to take the law in his hand but no action will be taken under any pressure,” asserted Adityanath.

“We will not arrest anyone on allegations. But yes, if someone is guilty, he will also not be spared irrespective of who he is,” the chief minister said.

Farmers have claimed that Ashish was in one of the vehicles which ran over them. It is an allegation denied by him and his father who say they can produce evidence to prove he was at an event at that time.

Adityanath pointed out that action in Uttar Pradesh is taken based on evidence. “We did this all over the state. Action was taken against whosoever evidence was found,” he said.

“Be it a BJP MLA or an opposition MLA and anyone in any post. We never hesitated in taking action. In Lakhimpur incident also, the government is doing the same thing,” added Aityanath.

On pasting of notice summoning Ashish Mishra and his arrest, the chief minister said, “A special investigation team (SIT) has been constituted by the government and a judicial commission has also be formed. The judicial commission will probe the entire case and officers in the SIT will delve into its details. The arrests of those whose videos have come and involvement was confirmed have started.”

While Luvkush and Ashish Pandey have been arrested in the case, police summoned Friday the minister’s son Ashish. However he did not turn up for the questioning.
