They were protesting against the police failure to register an FIR against Samajwadi Party MLA Kamlesh Paswan’s supporters who allegedly scuffled with the aides of a block pramukh.

The activists also held a meeting at the police station. Adityanath accused the police of working under pressure of ruling party members. He alleged the police were adopting a discriminatory attitude in registering an FIR. He also said law and order in the State had virtually collapsed. The police had registered cases of loot and dacoity against Chargawan block pramukh Prem Lata Singh’s husband Mahendra Pal Singh on Friday.
