Rakesh Sharma, the father of former Congress legislator Ashish Sharma, was also called in for questioning.
Speaking to the media, BJP leader Rajinder Rana described the allegations as baseless. He stated, "There is a significant difference between making an allegation and proving it.

We are here to cooperate with the investigation, but allegations alone don't prove guilt."
