Bhubaneswar : “Lawless Odisha is a reality. High-time people in power recognise the fault-lines in the law and order situation in the state” . Said Union Minister Dharmendra Pradhan reacting to the news regarding the abduction and killing of 15 years old boy Samarth for ransom in Jharsuguda
Sri Pradhan Said, “Murder of young Samarth exactly within two months of the broad daylight killing of Minister Nabha Das exposes Odisha govt’s tall claims on rule of law. Neither citizens nor public representatives are safe in Odisha. Gruesome incidents like these on a regular basis, particularly in Jharsuguda have shocked everyone and weakened the trust of people of Odisha.”
“No amount of empathy will bring solace to young Samarth’s family. The Odisha govt. must pull up its socks to ensure rule of law and safety of citizens.” said Sri Pradhan
