Bihar police appeared in action. Nitish Kumar’s police adopted the same formula that the police of Yogi Adityanath adopts. A criminal involved in Patna businessman Gopal Khemka murder case was killed in an encounter. Umesh Yadav, who shot at Khemka, was arrested. 4 lakhs for murder Arrested the betel nut businessman Ashok Saw.
Police claim that the case of murder of Gopal Khemka was scientifically investigated, all the links were added, criminals were caught, Motive is also clear. Police claim that Ashok Saw gave the contract to kill Gopal Khemka due to the rivalry of the ground dispute. Shooter Umesh Yadav opened fire on Gopal Khemka. Both of these have been arrested and the third criminal Vikas alias Raja has been encountered in this case.
BJP and JDU leaders are Gadgad on this success of Bihar Police. Deputy Chief Minister Emperor Chaudhary said that now the criminals will be stunned, the police has complete exemption. The second Deputy Chief Minister Vijay Sinha said, “To fresh the criminals, one has to shoot or bulldozers will all work.”
The full details of the Khemka murder case suggests, there is no cost of human life in Bihar. If there was a quarrel of land, betel nut was given. Shooter was found for just 4 lakhs. Shooter went out very comfortably after killing. The next day, he was going to leave his daughter in school with great leisurely. He did not even try to hide. Everything happened very easily.
It is good that now the police has come in action. There is pressure from political parties and media. The police itself told that if she wants, she can catch the culprit in a pinch. Encounter can also do.
Now this series should not stop. The case is not just about one murder. There has been a boil of murders and looting in Bihar. Bihar Police should show its power. Elections will come, will go, but the police should maintain Iqbal.
What is the fight: Marathi Asmita or Maratha vote?
In Maharashtra, Uddhav and Raj Thackeray are airing the politics of Marathi and Non Marathi, BJP is on defensive and Eknath Shinde’s Shiv Sena is taking the middle line. On Tuesday, there was a lot of uproar over the issue of Marathi and Non Marathi. Raj Thackeray’s party MNS and Marathi Integration Committee gave a march call on Meera-Bhayander. This march was named Marathi Swabhiman Morcha. In the same area, MNS workers beat up a shopkeeper for not coming to Marathi. The traders of the area were angry after this incident.
The police feared an uproar. Therefore, the police asked the MNS workers to take out a protest march from the second route but if they do not agree, the police refused to give permission. However, even after the police did not get permission, hundreds of Shiv Sena workers of MNS and Uddhav Thackeray gathered in Meera Bhayandar. The police detained about one hundred and fifty people but after some time, the Protestors in small groups started gathering in Meera Road.
Thousands of people led by MNS leaders Sandeep Deshpande and Avinash Jadhav started march on Meera Road. Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis said that everyone in Maharashtra is allowed to take out the front but the protesters will not accept the advice of the police. If you break the laws, then how can the permission of such a front be given.
Fadnavis said that the attempt to make Meera Road a laboratory of Marathi politics will prove to be a failure because Marathi Manus is of big heart.
Uddhav Thackeray and Raj Thackeray had said that they are against imposing Hindi in schools. The government withdrew the order. Thackeray brothers celebrated the victory. And then he also said that he is not against Hindi. Then what was the need to create a ruckus today?
Actually Idea was to show its strength. The shopkeepers had to show how the North Indians dared to take out a rally? The aim is to show themselves the protector of the Marathas, to bring to life in their party, but the public understands everything.
In Maharashtra, whether Maratha or North Indians all live together. Neither does anyone have a problem with Hindi, nor does anyone object to Marathi. The problem comes when elections are in front. If the BMC elections were not going to be held, then no one would have done so much uproar. (Rajat Sharma)
