He further said, he will be happy if filing an FIR against him will resolve the issue.
“I’m happy if filing an FIR against me resolves the issue, I’ll go & appear before any police station. But I will not allow our officers to be investigated. We will go to SC to resolve boundary dispute,” he said.
