When someone can be killed openly despite being surrounded by a security cordon, one can imagine the state of the general public. Due to this, an ambience of fear is being created among the public. It seems that some people are deliberately creating such an ambience," Akhilesh Yadav tweeted.Disclaimer: This post has been auto-published from an agency feed without any modifications to the text and has not been reviewed by an editor
