The family of expelled BJP leader Dayashankar Singh has lodged an FIR against Mayawati and some BSP leaders for allegedly using foul language against them during their public protest. Dayashankar’s mother Tetra Devi filed a complaint against the BSP leaders for raising "derogatory" slogans at the party protest in Lucknow.
The FIR has been registered under sections 120B (punishment for criminal conspiracy), 153 A (promoting enmity between different groups), 504 (intentional insult with intent to breach peace), 506 (punishment for criminal intimidation) and 509 (word, gesture or act to insult modesty of woman) of the IPC, police said.
"We will now demand the arrest of BSP leaders who had crossed all limits in abusing and degrading women members of the family", Dayashankar's family said.
Tetra Devi met the Hazratganj Police and submitted the complaint that she, her daughter, daughter-in-law and grand daughter were abused by BSP men who allegedly raised derogatory slogans during the protest. "There was an attempt to instigate violence and riot during the protest by highlighting differences on caste lines", she alleged in the complaint.
Singh's wife Swati Singh had earlier said, "My husband is in politics, but we have no political connection but BSP workers have abused all women of the family in a public protest.
"Why Mayawati is not taking action against Nassemuddin Siddiqui. Why he was not expelled from the party. I don't want to imagine what is the state of my 80-year-old mother-in-law," she said.
"While BSP leader Satish Chandra Mishra said that nothing like this happened, but the entire country has witnessed and listened the foul language used by BSP workers during protest on Thursday. It is about the integrity of women," she said.
BJP spokesman Vijay Pathak said, “While we condemn the words used by Dayashankar and have already taken action against him, we also do not approve of the manner in which BSP workers are targeting his wife, minor daughter and other women relatives”.
