Khattar was expected to meet the family on Wednesday, but called off the visit in the wake of protests staged by angry locals who blocked the Delhi-Agra highway.
&ldquo;We want the investigation to be done properly. But with great regret I have to say that some parties are trying to politicise this incident... It should not be given a political or casteist colour,&rdquo; he said.
Khattar added that the family&rsquo;s demand for a CBI probe has been met with and if there is any laxity on part of the police, then even they will not be spared. &ldquo;So far, what has emerged from the investigation is that the matter is not a caste-related dispute but rather a fallout of a long standing family feud,&rdquo; he said.
&ldquo;A SIT was formed to probe them. Later, the case was handed over to CBI as per the demand made by the relatives of the victim.&rdquo;
