'Owning Expensive Car Not a License to Kill': Aparna Yadav
BJP leader Aparna Bisht Yadav, on the Kanpur Lamborghini accident, said the incident was very unfortunate and deeply painful. She stated that the matter is under investigation and that a case has been registered to determine exactly what happened. Emphasising responsibility, she said that owning an expensive car does not give anyone the license to kill and such behaviour will not be tolerated. She added that if people act irresponsibly, strict action will be taken against them. Speaking to ANI, she said, "This is a very unfortunate incident. My heart is deeply pained by such incidents. It is a matter of investigation as to what exactly happened in the incident, and a case has also been registered. Just because you have a very expensive car does not mean you have got a license to kill someone. One should behave responsibly.
