To discuss today’s issue the panel comprised of SSP, Noida, R K S Rathore, Media Coordinator, United Students, Aditya Raj Kaul and Principal, Lotus Valley School, Madhu Chandra. The show was hosted by Sagarika Ghose.
So what role can someone like Aditya Raj Kaul, media coordinator of United Students play in such a case?
“I have with me the press release of the Government of India. It clearly states that a high-level committee has been set up to probe the matter. But what was the state police doing all these months? Also the unprofessional way in which the bodies were dug out, the media should not have been allowed inside at that time. There should have been sealing. It’s shocking that citizens have to wake the system from slumber again and again,” said Aditya Raj Kaul.
But what do citizens want from the case as of now?
“Though I appreciate the work of the SSP, I would demand a white paper on what happened in the killings plus an external agency, be it the CBI or the high-level committee should discuss the issue as well,” said Aditya Raj Kaul.
