Rajasthan Government "Solely Responsible" Udaipur Murder, Says BJP
Kanhaiya Lal was brutally murdered in a terrorist attack. There is outrage in the whole country. There is also a sense of insecurity among the ordinary people of Rajasthan. But it is very important to maintain a peaceful and harmonious environment under the law. The manner in which the state government of Rajasthan has acted in the last three and a half years, it is entirely responsible for this terrorist attack. This is not an isolated incident in itself, such incidents are happening again and again in Rajasthan, such terrorist organizations are flourishing in Rajasthan. Not a single week has gone by in the last six months when terrorist, jihadi incidents have not happened inside Rajasthan. The Government of Rajasthan is solely responsible for this. When there are festivals, then different laws are made for different religions. Festivals are imposed on one community, at the same time, when festivals of other societies take place, they are given a free hand. The Chief Minister of Rajasthan calls this incident a massacre. When someone makes a video of a murder and makes it viral, it is not in the ordinary course of controversy. This is not a murder, this is a public terrorist attack. This action has been taken to terrorize the entire society. - Rajyavardhan Singh Rathore, BJP
