Seven persons, including a police head constable, have lost their lives in these incidents.
"Surely this is a conspiracy as the US President is on a visit to India. This violence was a planned conspiracy," he said while addressing the media in Lucknow.
He added that "revelation regarding this will be made after investigations into the case are completed."
