    Patna: After the huge uproar in the Assembly over the arrest of Galwan martyr’s father Raj Kapoor Singh, Bihar Police has taken cognisance of the matter and initiated high-level inquiry into the matter.

    Singh’s son Jay Kishore Singh was among those martyred in the Galwan Valley clash in June 2020.

    DGP R.S. Bhatti directed the Vaishali police, accused of humiliating and thrashing Singh during his arrest on Monday night to constitute a team to investigate the incident. The district police was also directed to submit the report in a time bound manner and take necessary action if any official was involved in misbehaving with the martyr’s father.

    Singh’s son Nand Kishore alleged that the SHO, Jandaha, Vishvanath Ram came to his house in Kajari Bujurg on Sunday night and humiliated his father, using abusive language against him him and dragged him into the police van. Based on his statement, several media organisations published a report.

    Complainant Harinath Ram had registered two FIRs in 2019 and January 23, 2023 against Singh for encroaching his land as well as the government road to building a monument for his martyred son.

    During the police investigation, the officials said that it was found that Singh has encroached on the land of the complainant as well as the government property and due to the monument, the road was blocked and villagers were facing problems. Hence, Jandaha SDPO Poonam Keshri visited the village and gave Singh 15 days to remove the monument from the government as well as the land belonging to Harinath Ram.

    Based on the FIR, SHO Vishwanath Ram, went with the police force to Kajri Bujurg village on Monday night and arrested Singh.

    The BJP legislators created huge ruckus inside Bihar Assembly on Wednesday, alleging that the state Police humiliated a man whose son had given supreme sacrifice for the country.

    Deputy Chief Minister Tejashwi Yadav, supporting the Bihar Police, said that the action against Singh was taken as per the law. He also said that the way the BJP legislators created a ruckus, they seemed prepared to do “goondaism” inside the Assembly.

    Speaker Awadesh Narayan Singh had given time to Leader of Opposition Vijay Sinha to put his point on this issue but BJP MLAs did not listen and walked out from the house.

    Patna: In wake of the alleged humiliation of a Galwan martyr’s father in Bihar’s Vaishali, Defence Minister Rajnath Singh called up Chief Minister Nitish Kumar and expressed anguish over the incident.

    He also asked the Chief Minister to take action against officers who misbehaved with the father.

    Nitish Kumar himself revealed the incident in the Assembly on the third day of the Budget session on Wednesday. While BJP MLAs including Leader of Opposition Vijay Kumar Sinha were walking out from the house on this issue, he asked them to stay in.

    “The Defence Minister has called me and he was concerned about it. I have assured him about the investigation. I have directed Bihar Police to investigate the matter and take action if any police officer is involved in misbehaviour with the father of Galwan martyr’s son,” he said.

    Despite the Chief Minister’s assurance, Sinha walked out from the Assembly.

    Galwan martyr Jay Kishore Singh’s father Raj Kapoor Singh is facing charges of encroaching on a piece of land belonging to the state government and some portion of fellow villager Harinath Ram. Vaishali police booked him under the SC/ST Act as well as under extortion (‘rangdari’) apart from land encroachment acts.

    Singh’s son Nand Kishore alleged that the SHO, Jandaha, Vishvanath Ram came to his house in Kajari Bujurg on Sunday night and humiliated his father, used abusive language against him and dragged him into the police van.

    Nand Kishore also claimed that as the SHO and the complainant are from the same community, the former has taken the side of the latter.

    DGP R.S. Bhatti directed the Vaishali police to constitute a team to investigate the incident. The district police was also directed to submit the report in a time bound manner and take necessary action if any official was involved in misbehaving with the martyr’s father.

    Complainant Harinath Ram had registered two FIRs in 2019 and January 23, 2023 against Singh for encroaching his land as well as the government road to building a monument for his martyred son.

    During the police investigation, the officials said that it was found that Singh has encroached on the land of the complainant as well as the government property and due to the monument, the road was blocked and villagers were facing problems. Hence, Jandaha SDPO Poonam Keshri visited the village and gave Singh 15 days to remove the monument from the government as well as the land belonging to Harinath Ram.

    Vaishali: Family members of a jawan, who was among the soldiers who lost their lives in the 2020 Galwan Valley clash with Chinese PLA troops in eastern Ladakh, have alleged that the martyr’s father was thrashed and arrested by the police for building a memorial for his son on government land in Jandaha in Bihar’s Vaishali.

    The jawan whose father was targeted was identified as Jai Kishore Singh.

    However, the police claimed that the matter is linked to an issue of illegal encroachment, which was in violation of the rights of the landowner.

    “On January 23, a case was registered under SC/ST Act over a statue being erected on the land of Hari Nath Ram & on govt land in Jandaha. Later, walls bordering the statue were built. They have not sought any permission. If they wanted, they could have made it in their own land or sought land from the government. There would not have been an issue then. The landowner’s rights being violated due to illegal encroachment,” the SDPO Mahua said.

    However, the brother of the martyr, Jai Kishore Singh, who himself is in the armed forces, accused the police of thrashing his father and abusing him.

    “DSP ma’am visited us, asking us to remove the statue within 15 days. I said I will show her the document. Later, the police station in-charge came to our home and beat up my father before arresting him. They also abused my father. I am also in the armed forces personnel,” Nand Kishore, brother of Jai Kishore Singh, said.

    The locals protested against the police action and also chanted ‘Bharat Mata Ki Jai’.
