Samajwadi Party (SP) leader Rajendra Chaudhary condemned Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader Laxmikant Bajpai for using improper language for Moradabad SSP.

"It's condemnable; such kind of language can never be spoken by a submissive person for a public servant. What has the SSP done? Everybody knows the reason behind Moradabad incident when the Vidhan Sabha elections are nearing. But the people understand everything and will teach them a lesson then also," said Chaudhary.

"It's not SSP's fault the BJP protesters attacked the police and the DM. They cannot make an issue out of everything and use such kind of language," he added.

Chaudhary also warned BJP that the Uttar Pradesh government will never permit any such acts that go against the law and the constitution.

He added that the court will decide not the BJP that who was responsible for Kanth violence.

Earlier today, criticizing Kanth violence and the controversy that erupted out of it after Moradabad SSP Dharamvir made a political statement blaming BJP for the incident due to the upcoming by-elections, Bajpai had made a statement that the Moradabad SSP is not fit to be in public service and Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Akhilesh Singh Yadav should induct him in his security team and keep him in his Bungalow.

He had also demanded for investigation and questioned as to how come the District Magistrate got injured in the clashes but the SSP didn't even get a scratch.
