The notice instructed him to remove the camp office within 15 days. It is worth noting that when the administration team pasted the notice at Pandey’s residence, he was not present. In his absence, his son Atul Pandey received the notice.

As soon as the news of the notice spread, a large crowd of supporters gathered at the MLA’s residence today. The supporters reached the MLA’s house and expressed their anger against their own government. During this time, MLA Arvind Pandey reacted sharply to the administration’s action.
MLA Arvind Pandey gives clarification
BJP MLA Arvind Pandey said that a hero kills his enemies, while a villain harms his own people. Giving a clarification, the MLA said that “the tin shed built near my residence was for the convenience of passersby. If any legal action is to be taken, it should be done according to the rules, but unjust action will not be allowed against people who have been living in the Terai region for years.”
