But we did not give her any such opportunity. So, now she is manufacturing non-issues on her own," said Siddiqui. "She is trying to play the victim. We are not going to bite her nor are we going to harm the parks, we also respect the Dalit leaders and ideologues," he added.

Nothing would be done to the statues," he added.
