This comes amid rumours circulating in the market suggesting the incident might be linked to a business rivalry.A delegation of traders met with SP Sampat Upadhyay to address their concerns.
They specifically requested that the stabbing, which occurred a few days prior, not be connected to a business dispute.The traders urged for an impartial investigation, free from any external pressure, before any action.The SP has since assured them of a fair and complete investigation.
