Sharad Yadav seeks fast-track hearing of Dadri killing

Janata Dal (United) leader Sharad Yadav on Saturday said incidents such as the Dadri killing should be listed for fast-track hearing and the decision should be delivered within three months.

"Since the National Democratic Government has come to power, the religious divide is deepening, and that is why, even a small rumour resulted in the killing," Yadav told ANI.

When asked whom did he think was responsible for the incident, the JD (U) leader said, "The BJP government is responsible for this, because the Samajwadi Party doesn't instigate riots. The BJP creates a communal divide for the sake of votes."

He said there was no harm in political leaders visiting Dadri, but the question is why are their activists not stopping incidents or killings of this kind.

Commenting on political leaders such as Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal visiting Dadri, Yadav said, "Kejriwal believes in the unity of the Indian society. However, the visits of Asaduddin Owaisi and BJP leaders should be barred."

Reacting to BJP president Amit Shah's statement that his party does not want 'Jungle Raj-2' in Bihar, Yadav said Shah had been saying this for a long time, but today we have to check those forces, which are working beyond the limits of the Constitution for creating a divide.
