Leader of the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) Naresh Balyan also voiced his disapproval of the video and questioned “Why was the administration in UP so unbridled?”

The cop may be seen on video hitting the disabled man.
The video features a man with special needs riding his tricycle. Despite the man’s cries for help, the footage begins with PRD jawans beating and slapping him. Two uniformed PRD jawans are seen roughing up the disabled rider of the trike.
A man with special needs faces up against PRF soldiers.
When the PRD officers who had previously beaten the disabled guy come across him on the road, he does not hesitate to confront them. He can be seen disputing with a police officer and is overheard claiming, “It wasn’t me who abused, it was the PRD jawans.”
One of the jawans suggests he check in at the precinct. The PRD jawan is seen admonishing the disabled man for not accompanying him to the station. The disabled man, however, insists that he will ride his tricycle to the police station rather than accompany the PRD thugs.
