Speaking further on the incident, Owaisi urged that the UP government should take necessary action immediately, as this 'isn't an act of two people'. He claimed that there is a conspiracy involved in this attack.

Asaduddin Owaisi's car was near the Chhijarsi toll plaza on the Hapur-Ghaziabad stretch of the National Highway 24 when the incident took place at around 6 pm.
