Bareilly BJP MLA Says No Threat From Him To His Daughter For Marrying Dalit

The Uttar Pradesh BJP legislator, whose daughter has alleged she faces threat to her life from him because she married a Dalit man, said Thursday he posed "no threat" to anyone and he was "busy" with party work.
Rajesh Misra, the MLA from Bithari Chainpur constituency in Bareilly district, said in a statement issued here his daughter is an adult and "has the right" to take her own decision.
The statement has come a day after Sakshi Misra, 23, uploaded a video on a social media platform and made it public that she married Ajitesh Kumar, 29, last week.
