LUCKNOW:

Rashtriya Yuva Adhikar Manch (N.Y.R.M) and Jansatta Party of India (JPI) paid tribute to the victims at Gandhi statue near GPO in Hazratganj. Party chief Shashank Shekhar Singh Pushkar said the entire country expresses condolences to the families of the deceased.

"This kind of violence cannot be tolerated. The government should give harsh punishment to the accused. There is a deep conspiracy to make Jammu and Kashmir unsafe and harm the people there economically," said Pushkar.

The party urged the government to get a transparent investigation of the brutal massacre done and initiate stern action against the culprits.
