Bhubaneswar: On Thursday, Senior Congress leader and AICC general secretary Randeep Surjewala criticised the Odisha administration harshly, saying that crime has become a lucrative state industry under his patronage.
Surjewala targets the government for the increasing crime graph, especially women, and re-equips the information in favour of his claim. He claimed that the state reports four assassinations, four rapes, 11 abductions and 12 attempts to kill cases daily.
He claimed 68046 such incidents had been registered in the previous three years, stating that Odisha had won the dubious second place in violence against women. In addition 70 women and 15 small girls are abducted daily, he added. He added.
"Odisha recorded 2,65,335 criminal cases in the last year. Among these are 1,470 killings, 1,211, 4,179 abductions and 4,135 assassination attempts. Similarly 6,912 kids were abducted, including 5,815 females," Surjewala added.
He claimed that the state has a lengthy history of criminal crimes against women, but BJD government control did not include the horrific murder of school teacher Mamita Meher. He added that the minister of the state, Arun Sahu was reportedly implicated in the crime, citing the death of the young girl Pari in the District of Nayagarh.
The parents of Pari must attempt to immolate themselves before the state parliament, in order to make it clear to the Government that the police are indifferent. It is a matter of humiliation and dishonour. He stated, they still have to obtain justice.
Similarly, another minister, Pratap Jena was accused of double assassination in the IRF, while Bebina and Itishree's killings remain dark marks on Odisha's BJD reign, Surhewala said at a release.
The leader of Congress asked the administration about the Mamita Meher murder case:
- Shouldn't Dibya Shankar Mishra, Home Minister of State, be examined in this case?
- Why didn't the Chief Minister remove him?
- Are there no requirements for an order to provide a fair inquiry for a court-monitored SIT probe?
- Why does the government not order a sample in various organisations that report such occurrences to exploit women?
A Central Party Delegation led by Surjewala had already met with Mamita's family in Balangir district, in the hamlet of Jharani.
