Bhubaneswar: Without naming Congress leader Jagdish Tytler whose arrest has been demanded by the ruling BJD for the September 6 clash here, Odisha Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik on Thursday said action would be taken against those responsible.
"As far as the incidents of September 6 are concerned, action will be taken as per the provisions of law against those responsible," Patnaik told reporters in reply to a question.
Tytler, the AICC in-charge, arrived here last night and shared a dais with union minister V Narayansami at a press conference during the day.
Tytler refused to comment on the issue. "I am in politics for 40 years. Do not provoke me to say anything. I will hold a press meet soon."
Tytler is among others against whom the police have registered cases under several sections of the IPC for the clash.
