Naveen Patnaik said- criminals have become fearless in the state
Former Odisha Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik said that I was very pained for this incident. An attempt was made to burn a girl in broad daylight, it is a very scary thing. A week ago, a student of FM College set herself on fire when he did not get justice. A horrific incident took place in Gopalpur a month ago.
Patnaik questioned, ‘Will the government wake up now? Will criminals be caught soon? And if there are no such incidents, no concrete steps will be taken? Odisha’s daughters want the answer.
