A bench of Justices B R Gavai and K V Viswanathan had on Monday remarked, “How can anybody’s house be demolished only because he is an accused? Even if he is a convict, still it can’t be done without following the procedure as prescribed by law.”The observation sparked off an acrimonious exchange between Chief Minister Adityanath and his predecessor Akhilesh Yadav.Adityanath defended his government’s “bulldozer action” as brave, while Yadav challenged him to run for elections on a “bulldozer” symbol if he was so confident about his approach In a statement, the BSP President also mentioned the rape of a woman in a private ambulance and urged the government to take strict action against the guilty.”In Basti district of UP, a private ambulance driver, while taking a patient, tried to molest and rape his wife, this is very shameful. The husband of the woman died. Government should take strict action against the driver,” she said.
