Mathura Police had released a statement that the hit-and-run vehicle was "clearly" not a part of Irani's cavalcade.

Agra: The son of the Agra doctor who died on the night of March 5 after being allegedly hit by one of the vehicles in Union HRD minister Smriti Irani's convoy has written a letter to President Pranab Mukherjee claiming that he was "forced" by the station in-charge to mention the registration number of a "wrong car" in the FIR.

The letter, a copy of which is with TOI , written by Abhishek Nagar, son of Dr Ramesh Nagar, seeks "justice" from the President. It reiterates a charge he made earlier that Irani was "insensitive" to the family after the accident and had not done much to help them even when they "begged her with folded hands". The minister has denied that the car was part of her convoy.

Dead doc's kin to sit on dharna if no action against Irani

TOI had earlier reported that the daughter of Dr Nagar, 12-year-old Sandli, who was riding pillion on her father's motorcycle that day, and on whose account the FIR had been lodged at the Manth police station, had said she "clearly" saw Irani as the latter got down to check the commotion.

The HRD minister denied that the car was a part of her convoy. The next day, Mathura police released a statement that the hit-and-run vehicle was "clearly" not a part of Irani's cavalcade.

In his letter, Abhishek has written that the family will sit on an indefinite dharna if there is no action against Irani. "After the car in the minister's convoy hit my father, killing him on the Yamuna Expressway, the driver fled while Irani left for New Delhi, leaving the body of my father beside the two injured minors. I was later forced to mention the registration number of the vehicle as DL 3C BA 5315 in the FIR.But that's a car I have never seen. If such a car with that number plate does exist, I would like to see it. The station in-charge of Manth police station refused to register the case if I didn't mention the number in the FIR. The inspector claimed that he had seized the car, but was reluctant to show it," he wrote.

Asked about the allegation in the letter dated March 9, deputy superintendent of police and circle officer of Manth, Janak Singh, said, "Nobody forced the doctor's son to write the said car's number in the FIR. It was he who gave the Delhi-registered car's number in the written complaint." Singh, however, avoided a direct answer when asked if the police had shown the said vehicle that was involved in the accident as requested by Abhishek.
