VAISHALI (Bihar): Family members of a jawan, who was among the many troopers who misplaced their lives within the 2020 Galwan Valley conflict with Chinese PLA troops in japanese Ladakh, have alleged that the martyr’s father was thrashed and arrested by the police for constructing a memorial for his son on authorities land in Jandaha in Bihar’s Vaishali.

The jawan whose father was focused was recognized as Jai Kishore Singh.

However, the police claimed that the matter is linked to a difficulty of unlawful 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 are being violated due to illegal encroachment,” the SDPO Mahua mentioned.

However, the brother of the martyr, Jai Kishore Singh, who himself is within the armed forces, accused the police of beating 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, mentioned.

The locals protested towards the police motion and in addition chanted ‘Bharat Mata Ki Jai’.
