Absconding neta Shrikant Tyagi, accused of abusing Noida woman, arrested from Meerut

The absconding politician Shrikant Tyagi, who is accused of assaulting a woman in Noida, has been arrested from Meerut. His three associates have also been held, the Police said.

On Monday, the Noida Administration had razed to the ground -- the illegally constructed permanent structure -- by the abusive 'Neta' inside a high-rise society.

The Administration's tough stand came just three days after Tyagi indulged in a verbal spat with a woman over the plantation of palm trees.


Tyagi had encroached the common area of the society and constructed a wooden shed that had multiple pillars below it.

The demolition exercise was carried out by the Noida Authority in the morning around 9 a.m.
