Earlier, former Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadav also termed the encounter as pretend and added that the BJP authorities would not consider within the courtroom. “By doing false encounters, the BJP government is trying to divert attention from the real issues. The BJP does not believe in the court at all. Today’s and recent encounters should also be thoroughly investigated and the culprits should not be spared. Power does not have the right to decide what is right or wrong. BJP is against the brotherhood,” Akhilesh Yadav stated in a tweet.
