Hours after the Uttar Pradesh’s Lakhimpur Kheri ruckus in which at least two farmers died, Union Minister Ajay Mishra Teni on Sunday denied the allegations of his son’s involvement in the incident. He said that his son - Ashish Mishra - was not present at the spot when the incident occurred and that he had video evidence to back his claim. A group of people allegedly opened fire at the farmers.
