SP Mata Prasad Pandey: Akhilesh Yadav announced to give Rs 5 lakh to the family of each deceased in Sambhal

Lucknow: Samajwadi Party leader and Uttar Pradesh Assembly LoP Mata Prasad Pandey said Monday that the checks would be given out today as Akhilesh Yadav promised to provide the families of every dead person in Sambhal Rs five lakh.

“The relatives of the dead in Sambhal were to get Rs 5 lakh apiece, as our national president had said. To deliver those checks, we’re heading to Sambhal today,” Mata Prasad Pandey said.

Notably, at the end of November, SP chairman Yadav said that his party will compensate the relatives of those killed in the Sambhal riots with Rs five lakhs.

In an earlier jab at the current excavation work in Uttar Pradesh, Samajwadi Party (SP) Chief Akhilesh Yadav implied that a Shivling would possibly be discovered at the state’s chief minister’s home.

Yadav said, “Since the excavation work is underway, I believe that there is a Shivling at the Chief Minister’s residence too… we have faith that the Shivling is there,” suggesting that political dramatization of such finds was being practiced.”We should all get ready for its excavation,” he said. We’ll follow behind the journalists, who should go first.”

Sambhal District Magistrate (DM) Dr. Rajender Pensiya said on Saturday that repair and rehabilitation work at Sambhal’s Chaturmukh Well had begun.

He said that the Municipal Council had made a good start on Chaturmukh’s rebuilding and restoration. We will take care of all the wells ourselves and get funding from the government for all the pilgrimage sites since we have been here.
He went on to say that the government was contributing money for the renovation as part of its initiatives to protect the area’s religious and historical landmarks.

He said that the district has also been given money under the “Vandan Yojana for the Yam Tirtha,” also referred to as Yamghant Tirtha, in keeping with this plan.

In the wake of violence that broke out last month during an Archaeological Survey of India (ASI) examination of a Mughal-era mosque, which left four police officers and locals dead and numerous others injured, work is now being done to construct a police post in the empty space near Jama Masjid in Sambhal, Uttar Pradesh.

With the Rapid Action Force (RAF) in place to maintain security, work on a new police outpost in Sambhal has started. This move, which attempts to bolster security and stop any unrest, follows previous violence in the region that claimed lives.
