Lucknow: Uttar Pradesh's Deputy Chief Ministers on Thursday assured strict action against the culprits in the rape and murder of two Dalit girls in UP's Lakhimpur Kheri and urged the opposition to 'console the family instead of politicising the matter'.
"Lakhimpur incident is sad and unfortunate. Harshest action to be taken against all criminals. I'd expect the Opposition, whether Akhilesh Yadav, Priyanka Gandhi or Mayawati that instead of politicising, they console the family. But the rule of law has prevailed in UP," said Deputy CM KP Maurya.
