Culprits should be hanged immediately, Rajasthan minister Pratap Singh Khachariyawas demands

Kanhaiyalal murder case

Jaipur (Rajasthan) – ‘The barbarous act has made me angry since yesterday. The accused must be hanged within four days’, said Pratap Singh Khachariyawas, a minister in the Congress Government in Rajasthan. He was speaking on 28th June regarding the beheading of Kanhaiyalal by two jihadis, Riyaz Ansari and Mohammad Gaus. The two have been arrested by the Police. A few days back, Kanhaiyalal’s 8-year-old son had posted a post in support of Nupur Sharma on social media. Kanhaiyalal was arrested by the Police for it. Yet the jihadis were threatening to kill him. He had also lodged a complaint with the Police seeking protection. (If Kanhaiyalal had sought protection, why did the Police not grant it ? Will the Congress Government of Rajasthan investigate the concerned Police officials and take action against them ? – Editor)

Constitute an anti-radicalisation cell to monitor radicals : Asaduddin Awaisi

उदयपर में हुई क्रूर हत्या निंदनीय है। ऐसी हत्या को कोई डिफ़ेंड नहीं कर सकता। हमारी पार्टी का मुसलसल स्टैंड यही है के किसी को भी क़ानून को अपने हाथों में लेने का हक़ नहीं है। हमने हमेशा हिंसा का विरोध किया है। 2/3

‘Every form of violence must be condemned. No one has the right to take the law into their own hands or defend it. Radicalism needs to be brought under control. That is why I have demanded that anti-radicalisation cell should be for every religion not just for one particular religion to monitor radicalisation happening in our country’, MP Asaduddin Awaisi, AIMIM president, said.

Those who spread terror should be punished immediately – Rahul Gandhi

उदयपुर में हुई जघन्य हत्या से मैं बेहद स्तब्ध हूं।

धर्म के नाम पर बर्बरता बर्दाश्त नहीं की जा सकती। इस हैवानियत से आतंक फैलाने वालों को तुरंत सख़्त सज़ा मिले।

हम सभी को साथ मिलकर नफ़रत को हराना है। मेरी सभी से अपील है, कृपया शांति और भाईचारा बनाए रखें।

— Rahul Gandhi (@RahulGandhi) June 28, 2022

‘I am deeply shocked by the heinous murder in Udaipur. Brutalism in the name of religion cannot be tolerated. Those who spread terror should be punished immediately. We all have to defeat hate together. I appeal to all, please maintain peace and brotherhood’, Congress leader and MP Rahul Gandhi said.

Editorial Viewpoint

Immediate legal action must be taken instead of making appeal to take the law into one’s own hands !
