Himachal Pradesh is becoming a crime capital under Congress rule: BJP state president Dr. Rajiv Bindal

Nahan, Nov 11 (UNI) Bharatiya Janata Party State President Dr. Rajiv Bindal expressed deep concern over the "continuous murders, shootings, and other criminal incidents" in Himachal Pradesh, launching a scathing attack on the state's Congress government and Chief Minister Sukhwinder Singh Sukhu.
He alleged that during the nearly four years of the Congress government's tenure, the law and order situation in the state has steadily deteriorated, and peaceful Himachal Pradesh appears to be turning into a crime capital due to the activities of criminals.
Dr. Bindal said that the criminal incidents reported in various parts of the state in the last four to five days are extremely worrying. He said that the brutal murder of two people by running over them with a Thar vehicle is an example of the increasing impunity of criminals. The open firing incidents in Nalagarh have also raised serious questions about law and order. It appears that criminals are losing their fear of the law and the police, he alleged.

The BJP State President stated that the continuous incidents of murder in Sirmaur district have created an atmosphere of fear and insecurity among the general public.
The discovery of a woman's body on the Nahan-Kumarhatti road two days ago shocked the entire region. The subsequent murder of a motorcyclist in the Shillai area is deeply heartbreaking. Preliminary information suggests the youth was shot in the head. However, the true circumstances of the incident will only become clear after a police investigation.
Dr. Bindal stated that these incidents are not a recent phenomenon but point to the serious deteriorating law and order situation in the state. He alleged that crime from Chamba to Sirmaur and Una to Kinnaur has affected the state's peaceful identity.
Even after serious incidents like the murder of a Dalit youth, the crime spree shows no signs of abating. Dr. Bindal alleged that the Congress government led by Chief Minister Sukhwinder Singh Sukhu is failing to maintain law and order. He stated that there is a need to effectively curb the growing emboldenedness of criminals and alleged mafia activities.
Dr. Bindal demanded that the state government ensure fair and timely investigations of all serious criminal cases, strict legal action against the perpetrators, and take immediate and effective steps to strengthen law and order in the state.
He stated that providing a fear-free environment and security to the people of Himachal is the government's primary responsibility.
