Samajwadi Party Alleges Land Grabbing in Ayodhya

The Samajwadi Party has accused a business group of forcibly acquiring land from the Manjhi caste in Ayodhya. The controversy intensified after videos of a clash involving the business group's employees and local farmers were posted on social media. Local police have denied the allegations and stated that legal actions are being taken.

On Sunday, the Samajwadi Party made severe allegations against a business conglomerate, claiming the group is 'grabbing land' from the Manjhi caste in Ayodhya. They also accused the group's goons of intimidating and physically assaulting local farmers.

The situation escalated when Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav and his party released videos purportedly showing a conflict between two groups over land occupation. Police swiftly responded, stating that they are investigating the matter and that the accusations are unfounded.

The party's verified social media handle posted clips and news articles depicting a scuffle between the business group's staff and farmers. In addressing these claims, police authority Raj Karan Nayyar emphasized that an investigation is underway, noting that the facts stated in the social media posts are incorrect.
