At the end of the procession, Mamata Banerjee said, “No political party is being allowed to enter Uttar Pradesh. I have heard that journalists are also being detained. The BJP shoots aimless high talks during the votes only. They bring food from hotels and eat at the homes of Dalits. As soon as the vote is over, the Dalits are severely tortured. The BJP is playing dirty politics everywhere.”
On Friday (October 2), a four-member delegation comprising Trinamool Congress leaders was stopped by the Uttar Pradesh administration who refused them an opportunity to meet the victim’s family at Hathras.
Officials of Uttar Pradesh Police were seen manhandling Trinamool Congress MP Derek O’Brien. The MP was pushed, shoved and then he fell down suffering minor injuries.
