Congress Uttar Pradesh unit chief Ajay Rai demanded major relief for families affected by the Satya Niketan building collapse. He called the incident deeply tragic and sought strict action against those responsible.
According to Rai, authorities should not limit action only against the building owner. He demanded action against officials who approved building plans and allowed construction. Additionally, he requested ₹11 crore compensation and one government job for each victim’s family.
