Hyderabad (Telangana) [India], Dec 4 (ANI): Union Minister of Minority Affairs Mukhtar Abbas Naqvi on Tuesday said that the Bulandshahr incident, in which a police officer lost his life, has let down the humanity.

Naqvi further urged people to be cautious of the elements creating unrest in the society.

“What happened in Bulandshahr has let down humanity. State government has said that whoever is responsible will be brought to justice without any bias. I appeal to people to stay cautious of the elements who are creating unrest for their own interests,” he told ANI.

Station House Officer (SHO) Subodh Kumar Singh and a local youth were killed in Uttar Pradesh’s Bulandshahr on Monday when a mob went on a rampage over allegations of illegal cow slaughter.

Singh was also the Investigating Officer (IO) in the Mohammed Akhlaq lynching case in 2015 in Dadri which hit headlines.

Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath has declared a compensation of Rs 40 lakh for the deceased police officer’s wife, Rs 10 lakh for his parents and a government job for one family member. (ANI)
