Ray of hope for Apple executive’s widow

After a meeting with Yogi Adityanath yesterday, Apple executive Vivek Tiwari’s widow Kalpana Tiwari said she sees a ray of hope as chief minister of Uttar Pradesh had assured her all help and justice in the case.

Vivek Tiwari was shot dead by a state police constable in Lucknow on Saturday on the pretext that he did not stop his vehicle when asked to do so.

“After meeting the chief minister, I am confident that I will be able to discharge the responsibilities of bringing up my two children,” she said. The CM assured all help to the bereaved family and said that justice will be done at all costs.

He also told the family that the conduct of the constable Prashant Chowdhary was unacceptable and he had been sacked and booked for murder. At the meeting in a sombre atmosphere, the distraught widow broke down many times.
