Odisha Congress seeks CM Majhi’s resignation as Home Minister over NCIB concerns on Law and Order

Bhubaneswar, Oct 27 (UNI) Odisha Pradesh Congress Committee (OPCC) president Bhakta Charan Das has demanded that Chief Minister Mohan Charan Majhi relinquish charge of the Home Department, citing concerns reportedly raised by the National Crime Investigation Bureau (NCIB) over allegations of police torture, illegal detention and custodial misconduct in the state.
Das also criticised the BJP-led government over the law-and-order situation and alleged that its assurances on police reforms had not translated into effective action.
In a statement issued here on Tuesday, Das alleged that the state government had failed to effectively control crime, ensure public safety and safeguard citizens’ rights. He said the concerns reportedly raised by the NCIB regarding alleged police torture, illegal detention and misconduct in custody had raised serious questions about the functioning of the state’s law-enforcement system.
