Lucknow (Uttar Pradesh) [India], Dec 29 (ANI): Social media reports that police personnel heckled and strangulated Priyanka Gandhi Vadra are wrong, Uttar Pradesh police on Saturday said.

Earlier today, Priyanka alleged that UP police stopped her, strangulated and manhandled while she was on her way to meet the family of former IPS officer SR Darapuri, who was arrested during anti-CAA protests.
"UP police stopped me while I was going to meet the family of Darapuriji. A policewoman strangulated and manhandled me. They surrounded me while I was going on a party worker's two-wheeler, after which I walked to reach there," she said.
Gandhi said she was walking after she was stopped by police and they again stopped her.
"I was walking (after the car was stopped). I was surrounded, strangulated. They pushed me..by a woman police person. I fell down. They stopped me and then I went on a scooter of a party worker," the Congress leader said. (ANI)
