The incident took place at late night when the corporator was returning home on his two wheeler.
As per sources, the deceased was a close aide of Deputy CM Keshav Prasad Maurya and Yogi’s cabinet Minsiter Nand Gopal Nandi.
Pawan Hans Kesari passed away while he was being brought to Allahabad for treatment.
The incident has left the party leaders agitated, who are demanding a strict probe in the case.
Kesari was a BJP corporator, which is why he was under the scanner of goons for a long time. As per police officials, the conspiracy was planned by someone close to Kesari.
The reason for the death is yet to be asserted. The police have launched a probe in the case. The cops have also arrested three people over suspicion.
