The ruling Congress party in Rajasthan faced significant embarrassment when its MLA from Osian, Divya Maderna, raised serious questions about her own government. The matter pertained to the distressing incident in her constituency where four members of a family, including a six-month-old child, were killed and burned in a village during the early hours of Wednesday.
In a major embarrassment for the ruling Congress party in Rajasthan, the party's MLA from Osian, Divya Maderna questioned her own government over four members of a family, including a six-month-old child, being killed and burnt in a village in her constituency in the wee hours of Wednesday. Expressing her concerns to the media, Maderna stated, "What can I say, I myself am not safe. I get attacked even under police protection. The culprits who attacked me are still at large."
She further revealed, "I intended to raise this matter in the assembly, but I was not given the opportunity to speak. On Thursday, we will present a bill in the assembly to address organized crimes. Today's incident has brought this issue to the forefront, and it demands answers." Additionally, MLA Maderna raised questions about Jodhpur IG Jaynarayan Sher's competence and urged for his immediate removal from the field and placement in the PHQ.
Union Minister Piyush Goyal strongly criticized the Ashok Gehlot-led Congress government in Rajasthan, condemning the prevailing law and order situation. He asserted, "In the jungle rule of Congress in Rajasthan, even their own women legislators are not safe, let alone the safety of other women."
To underscore his point, Goyal shared a video featuring the Congress MLA, where she expresses feeling unsafe and reveals multiple attacks on her convoy. The MLA is heard saying that despite traveling under police protection and having informed the authorities about potential risks, she faced repeated threats and attacks. The situation highlights the urgent need for improved security measures and effective handling of law and order issues in the state.
