Later speaking to the media, Sanjay demanded the government to take stringent action against the guilty. He accused the police of taking the side of the slaughterhouse management and of registering false cases against the poor tribal women. “The workers came to basti and attacked the women and children, hence cases should be booked against them, not the women,” he said.
