Express news service Posted online: Fri Nov 05 2010, 01:38 hrs
Lucknow : After a newly elected Dalit zila panchayat member was shot
dead by unidentified assailants at his village in Meh Nagar police
station area of Azamgarh district on Thursday morning, the locals
placed his body on Gorakhpur road and blocked it for over five hours,
demanding arrest of the assailants and a compensation for the kin of
the deceased.
The victim — Subhash alias Ravi, 28 — was also a member of the Bahujan
Samaj Party (BSP) district unit in Azamgarh.

The agitation ended after Assembly Speaker Sukhdeo Rajbhar and local
BSP MP Dr Baliram reached the spot and pacified the locals. The police
arrested Ravi's rival candidate, Surendra Yadav, for allegedly killing
the victim.
