Violent protests took place in Uttar Pradesh’s Kasganj on Friday after the brutal killing of three persons of a family by robbers who tied them to their beds on Thursday night and bludgeoned them to death.
Senior officials said they were monitoring the situation but added that there was no violence.
Pachauri, the UP minister for Khadi, village industries and textile, held district authorities responsible for the incident.
Sushil Gupta said he was so scared that he had decided to apply for a gun license and sought protection from the Yogi Adityanath government.
The local police SP, the UP police chief, chief minister and even the Home Minister were informed about the impending violence through social media, but police did not take timely preventive action.
According to information accessed by India TV reporter, Kasganj violence was pre-planned and authorities could have prevented it.
