Ram Naik to meet Dayashankar's daughter on Sunday

UP Governor Ram Naik will be meeting the daughter of Dayashankar Singh, who was expelled from Bharatiya Janata Party after he allegedly made derogatory remarks on the character of BSP chief supremo Mayawati.

Naik, who was here to attend a function, told reporters that he has received a call from Dayashanker’s daughter seeking an appointment with him.

“I have called her on Sunday at Raj Bhawan to listen to her grievances,” he said.

The BJP, which held demonstrations across the state demanding arrest of BSP leader Naseemuddin Siddiqui over derogatory remarks made against women members of Singh’s family, also handed over a memorandum in this regard.

BJP district president Basant Tyagi, along with his party worker, handed over the memorandum to Naik, after the Governor unveiled a statue of founder of a Loni-based inter college and social activist RC Dixit.
