Bhubaneswar: Bharatiya Janata Yuva Morcha (BJYM) on Sunday threatened to gherao the office of Odisha’s Director General of Police (DGP) if those involved in the attack on its president Abhilash Panda are not arrested by Monday.
Addressing a press meet in Bhubaneswar, BJYM vice president Sangram Patra alleged that no action has so far been taken against the accused involved in the attack on Panda in Chandbali in Bhadrak district.
Lamenting that no action has been taken though over 72 hours have elapsed since the incident took place, he alleged that Chandbali MLA Byomakesh Roy was among those involved in the attack on Panda.
He sought to know as to why the police failed to initiate action against the legislator, local sarpanch and others in connection with the incident.
Claiming that several criminal cases are pending against Roy, the BJP youth leader said if the legislator and others are not arrested within 24 hours, the youth wing will launch an agitation and gherao the office of the DGP.
Notably, Panda and others sustained grievous injuries after being attacked allegedly by BJD workers on May 30 evening while returning after election campaign.
