Chairman of Uttar Pradesh Legislative Council, Ganesh Shankar Pandey, today directed the government to order a Special Task Force (STF) probe into the killing of a BSP leader in Aligarh last month.
The Chairman also directed the government to inform the House about the probe report.
The matter was raised during Zero Hour through an adjournment notice by BSP leader Naseemuddin Siddiqui who demanded a discussion on the murder of party leader Dharmendra Chowdhury, who was party candidate from Atrauli Assembly seat, in Aligarh on January 10.
He alleged that the state government failed on law and order front and strict action was not taken in the matter.
Leader of the House, Ahmad Hasan, said the state government did not make any compromise on law and order and the matter was being taken seriously.
However, unsatisfied with the reply, BSP members staged a walkout.
Later, BJP members moved an adjournment notice on the matter of power crisis in the state and they also walked out when they did not get a satisfactory answer.
