When will goons fear law in Madhya Pradesh, asks former CM Kamal Nath

BHOPAL: Former chief minister Kamal Nath on Friday alleged that brutal incidents of crime are occurring in the state while the government is busy making public appearances in by-election areas. Taking to twitter, the senior Congress leader asked when fear of law will be instilled in criminals.

“On the one hand, the BJP government in Madhya Pradesh is talking daily about good governance and public welfare, celebrating 21-days on the occasion of Modiji’s birthday as days of service and dedication while on the other hand, there are incidents occurring which is disgracing the state every day in the country,” @OfficeOfKNath alleged.

“Now in Shahjapur’s village Sampkheda, a farmer Ishwar Singh and his daughter consumed poison and embraced death. In Gwalior, a four-year-old inncocent child became the victim of cruelty and in village Eklehra in Dhar district, both legs of an elderly woman were severed – a barbaric incident of murder has been revealed,” he said recalling the grotesque incident of an elderly woman’s legs being chopped of for her anklets. “Don’t know when the Shivraj government— engaged in by-poll, will do justice to farmers in the state. When will fear of the law be instilled in criminals of the state?” Nath asked.
