The BJP on Wednesday said Uttar Pradesh Governor Ram Naik should send a report on the deteriorating law and order situation in the state to the central government.
The Bharatiya Janata Party demanded the expulsion of Kairana legislator Nahid Hasan over Shamli shooting incident.
"The goons of the Samajwadi Party have destroyed the law and order situation in the state and police have become mere spectators," BJP national secretary Siddharth Nath Singh said here.
A 10-year-old boy was killed by a stray bullet during celebratory firing at a rally held by supporters of a man who had won a local election with the backing of the ruling Samajwadi Party in Uttar Pradesh.
"The governor should take cognizance of it and send a report to the union home ministry over the law and order situation in the state," he added.
"The family members of the 10-year-old boy identified the main accused but he is roaming freely," he added.
