ABP न्यूज़ के पत्रकार सुलभ श्रीवास्तव की निर्मम हत्या।
शराब माफियाओं के ख़िलाफ़ खबर चलाने के कारण यू पी में एक पत्रकार की हत्त्या हो जाती है जबकि एक दिन पहले सुलभ जी ने ADG को पत्र लिखकर हत्त्या की आशंका जताई थी लेकिन सब सोते रहे। @ABPNews @AbpGanga pic.twitter.com/Fwpk6PE3Ti— Sanjay Singh AAP (@SanjayAzadSln) June 13, 2021
Whereas the Congress leader Priyanka Gandhi Vadra has also raised questions over the administration of Uttar Pradesh and said that the government is asleep.
Priyanka tweeted, “Journalists should expose the truth, warn the administration about the danger. The government is asleep. Does the UP government, which nurtures Jungle Raj, have an answer to the tears of the family members of journalist Sulabh Srivastava?”
शराब माफिया अलीगढ़ से प्रतापगढ़ तक:पूरे प्रदेश में मौत का तांडव करें।
उप्र सरकार चुप।
पत्रकार सच्चाई उजागर करे, प्रशासन को खतरे के प्रति आगाह करे।
सरकार सोई है।
क्या जंगलराज को पालने-पोषने वाली उप्र सरकार के पास पत्रकार सुलभ श्रीवास्तव जी के परिजनों के आंसुओं का कोई जवाब है?
