Former Haryana Chief Minister Bhupinder Singh Hooda on Sunday said there is complete breakdown of law and order in the State.
Hours after two minor Dalit girls were allegedly raped and killed in separate incidents in the State, Hooda said the BJP-led Haryana Government has failed to put a check on the rising crime graph.
Demanding exemplary punishment for the culprits, the two-time former Chief Minister said, “This Government has failed on all fronts. The law and order situation has completely broken down. Children are neither safe in schools nor in their homes in Haryana. Such heinous crimes are increasing, but the State Government seems to be in slumber.”
Two minor girls were allegedly raped and killed in separate incidents in Haryana, barely a month after a similar case involving a six-year-old girl shook the state.
Referring to the case in which the 15-year-old girl from Kurukshetra district was sexually assaulted and murdered, Hooda said the incident was similar to the Nirbhaya case which took place in Delhi a few years back. The body of another victim, an 11-year-old girl, was found in a village in Panipat district on Sunday morning.
The senior Congress leader said that these shocking incidents were a grim reminder of how the law and order situation in the state has deteriorated under the BJP government. Haryana Congress president Ashok Tanwar has also hit out at the State Government over alleged deteriorating law and order situation.
The crime against women is increasing and the BJP Government has failed to keep a check on crime rate in the State, said Tanwar.
