Mathura: An administrative probe into the Jawahar Bag violence has begun and the report will be submitted within a fortnight, Aligarh commissioner Chandra Kant said today.
"The report will not be delayed. It will be submitted to the government within a fortnight," he said in Mathura.
"I have talked to DM Rajesh Kumar, SSP Rakesh Singh, ADMs and City Magistrate Ram Araj Yadav. I have also visited Jawahar Bag and recorded statements of people regarding the incident," he said.
Mr Kant, who is heading the investigation into the violent clashes between police and encroachers at Jawahar Bagh on Thursday, said all possible angles will be looked into.
29 people, including SP Mukul Dwivedi, and SHO (Farah) Santosh Yadav died during the clashes.
"Why the incident has taken place, whether it was properly tackled, shortcomings in operation Jawahar Bag, what is the level of shortcoming, whether firing orders were given late or any other factor - everything will be thoroughly probed," he said.
Meanwhile, Union minister Sadhvi Niranjan Jyoti said the Uttar Pradesh government "mishandled" the situation.
"In spite of the Allahabad High Court order and repeated requests of the district administration in the last three months, adequate force was not provided in time to tackle the situation," she said, adding it had happened due to "intelligence failure".
"The Chief Minister or any senior minister of his Cabinet should have personally condoled the death of two police officers," she said.
Ms Jyoti also said only a CBI probe could satisfy the families of the officers.
"The report will not be delayed. It will be submitted to the government within a fortnight," he said in Mathura.
