Shrikant Tyagi case: Bulldozers and JCBs reached Noida’s Grand Omaxe society on Monday as the encroachment drive against Shrikant Tyagi’s illegal construction began inside the society complex. The society is located in sector 93 of Noida.
The development comes a day after supporters of Shrikant Tyagi – who identifies himself as the national executive member of the BJP’s Kisan Morcha and national co-coordinator of its Yuva Samiti and is accused of misbehaving and threatening a woman inside the residential complex, entered the society and attempted to create a ruckus.
The mob was seen asking for the woman’s address.

Meanwhile, amid a huge public outcry over the incident, the Noida Police today suspended the Phase 2 police station in charge over alleged negligence.
Shrikant Tyagi, however, is on the run.
In a video that was released to India TV, the residents of the society were seen protesting at the police for inadequate action. The supporters were detained by the police after the residents had cornered them.
Shrikant Tyagi – case so far
On Saturday, the Noida police detained four close associates and impounded two vehicles of Shrikant Tyagi. An FIR against him was also lodged.
The action comes even as BJP continues to distance itself from Shrikant Tyagi, who was booked under Indian Penal Code section 354 (assault or use of criminal force on any woman, intending to outrage or knowing it to be likely that he will thereby outrage her modesty) over a spat with a co-resident of their housing society in Sector 93B.
