Superintendent of Police (Aligarh City) M Shekhar Pathak told reporters that investigators are analysing CCTV footage to identify the culprits and expect a breakthrough soon.

The attack had sparked controversy after senior Karni Sena leaders publicly claimed responsibility, saying they intended to stop the MP's vehicle to "discuss certain issues".

Meanwhile, senior SP leader Shivpal Yadav, who was in Agra on Wednesday, criticised the state government for its "inaction" against Karni Sena members. "The attack on Ramji Lal Suman took place at the behest of the government. They are not taking any action against Karni Sena despite their public admission," Yadav told the media.
