Lucknow, Oct 8 (IANS) Union Minister Ajay Mishra Teni on Friday said that his son Ashish Mishra, an accused in the Lakhimpur incident, has not fled as reported in the media.
"My son will go to the police tomorrow and assist the probe. He has not escaped anywhere," Mishra said on his arrival in Lucknow.
He said that his son was very much in their house in Lakhimpur.
On calls for his resignation, Mishra said: "The Opposition just wants resignation on every issue. Let the investigation begin, truth will prevail."
He later went to the Chief Minister's residence to meet Yogi Adityanath and also attend the party meeting for Avadh region.
He said that Prime Minister Narendra Modi's vision of New India has failed and all the slogans of the Prime Minister have only been rhetoric and now the country needs a new vision which can revive the economy.
In his remarks at the virtual event, the Chief Minister said the mission will unleash Punjab's growth potential and create a thriving economy by generating jobs and inviting investment.
The two drug suppliers have been identified as Balwinder Singh of Sarangwal Hoshiarpur village and Peter Masih of Basti Danishmanda locality in Jalandhar. Peter already faces two criminal cases.
Fulfilling a major poll promise, Punjab Chief Minister Amarinder Singh on Tuesday launched the enhanced social security pension of Rs 1,500 per month, a threefold increase from Rs 500 earlier given by the SAD-BJP alliance government.
The National Investigation Agency has so far identified one Munsib, who is active on social media and is actively involved in online recruitment. Further, the Taliban have also released ISIS-K recruiter Aijaz Ahangar from a jail in Afghanistan. Ahangar is listed as a most-wanted terrorist in India.
