While the Congress leader emphasized that whoever is found guilty in the case should be punished according to the law, he also criticized the BJP for taking to the streets and protesting prematurely. “The BJP is trying to make it big,” he stated during a press conference, questioning the need for the Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad (ABVP), the student wing of the BJP, to hold protests.
Prasad Raj Kanchan pointed out that no officers from the district police department have been transferred since the Congress government assumed power two-and-a-half months ago. He accused the BJP of lacking faith in the ongoing investigation and attempting to discredit the police. “Why don’t you have the patience to wait for the investigation report to come?” he asked.
He further criticized the BJP for allegedly diverting attention from the case and trying to create communal tensions instead, adding that the local MLAs were behaving inappropriately.
