Lawyers and youth activists in Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh, held a torchlight march on Saturday evening to seek justice for Divyarishi Tiwari, a district general secretary of the BJP Yuva Morcha and an advocate who died due to electrocution on September 27. The protesters gathered near the accident site, near DB Mall, and marched to MP Nagar police station, where they submitted a memorandum demanding accountability for the incident.
Tiwari reportedly came into contact with an electric pole in front of the mall, but the police have registered a case of death due to negligence against unidentified persons or an agency. Protesters called for a criminal probe into the roles of suspended executive engineer Ashish Shrivastava and assistant engineer Sumit Singh, and an independent inquiry into allegations that Narmada Trauma Centre refused to admit Tiwari and advised shifting him to AIIMS.
