Block chief contested from Asmoli
Anuj had also got a gunner from the Sambhal police. Who was present inside the flat at the time of the incident. Behind the incident, the feud between the two factions of the BJP has come to the fore regarding the chiefship of Asmoli block of Sambhal. The family has alleged that the murder was done due to electoral enmity. Anuj was the leader of BJP Kisan Morcha. He contested the block chief election in 2021 from Asmoli in Sambhal. Since then there was mutual enmity. The incident was captured in the camera installed nearby. The SSP said that 5 teams have been formed to nab the attackers.
The memories of the Prayagraj firing incident became fresh.
Please tell that the Moradabad firing incident once again reminded the Dhoomanganj incident of Prayagraj. The CCTV of that incident also went viral very fast, which horrified everyone. According to the family members, Anuj Chaudhary’s electoral rivalry was going on since he contested the block chief’s election. Santosh Devi, a resident of neighboring Hajibeda village, had contested the election as an independent. At that time Anuj lost the election by 10 votes. Santosh Devi, who won the election, later joined the BJP. Since then their dispute was going on. Anuj had started preparing for a no-confidence motion against the current block chief (Asmoli).

SSP Hemraj Meena told that investigation has revealed that some people came and shot Anuj from behind. He had bullet injuries in his head and shoulder. Dead body has been sent for postmortem. Teams have been formed to arrest the accused. Forensic team and our other teams have been deployed.

His brother Amit Chaudhary has been nominated. The second accused is Aniket, who is the son of the current block chief. In the 2021 elections, there was a dispute among themselves several times. The family has expressed apprehension.
