Senior BJP leaders attending the funeral of a soldier killed in the Monday encounter with terrorists in Pulwama were accused of insensitive behaviour by relatives of the army man. Union minister Satyapal Singh, Uttar Pradesh minister Sidharth Nath Singh and Meerut BJP lawmaker Rajendra Agarwal were sitting in the cremation area with their shoes on, which infuriated the family of Ajay Kumar, the jawan who died in Kashmir. In a mobile phone clip that has been widely shared on social media, a member of the soldier's family can be seen shouting at the leaders and asking them to be sensitive. The leaders then apologise with folded hands and remove their shoes, which are taken away.
