Speaking to India Today TV in an interview, Samajwadi Party president Akhilesh Yadav said that while Ajay Misra should immediately resign from the post, his son, Ashish Misra, should be put behind the bars for “deliberately running over a group of farmers”.

“Even in the Hitler rule, such a thing wouldn’t have happened in which farmers are deliberately run over by a car,” Akhilesh Yadav told India Today TV.
