Congress Leader Demands SIT Probe into Communal Murders in Dakshina Kannada
Senior Congress leader and former Karnataka minister B Ramanth Rai has called for a thorough investigation into the communal murders that occurred in Dakshina Kannada district during the previous BJP rule. Rai demanded that a Special Investigation Team (SIT) be formed to look into the matter.
Speaking to reporters, Rai responded to allegations made by BJP state president Nalin Kumar Kateel, who claims that law and order in the state has collapsed within two months of the Congress government’s administration. Rai argued that Kateel is spreading misinformation and attempting to shift the blame onto the Congress and Chief Minister Siddaramaiah-led government.
Rai emphasized that no Congress leader has ever delivered provocative communal speeches anywhere. In order to clear the confusion created by the BJP, he stressed the need for an SIT probe into the communal murders in Dakshina Kannada district, including the cases of Harish Poojary, Vinayak Baliga, Jaleel Karopady, Deepak, Praveen Nettaru, Fazil, and Masood.
The Congress party plans to submit a memorandum to Chief Minister Siddaramaiah regarding their demands for a fair investigation into the communal murders.
The demand for an SIT probe comes at a time of political turmoil in the state, with various factions within the NCP seeking to keep the party intact. There is also an ongoing case related to the remission of convicts in the Bilkis Bano case, with the Supreme Court fixing August 7 for the final hearing of pleas against the remission.
The need for a thorough investigation into the deaths in Dakshina Kannada district is crucial to maintain law and order and ensure justice for the victims. By calling for an SIT probe, the Congress leader aims to shed light on the truth behind these communal murders and bring the perpetrators to justice.
As the situation unfolds, it is important for authorities to address the concerns of the public and take appropriate action. A fair and impartial investigation is necessary to provide closure to the families of the victims and restore peace in the district.
The Congress party’s efforts to seek justice through an SIT probe demonstrate their commitment to upholding the rule of law and preserving communal harmony. It is now up to the government to take swift action and ensure that justice is served. The people of Dakshina Kannada are looking for answers, and it is vital that their voices are heard and their grievances are addressed. Only then can the wounds inflicted by these communal murders begin to heal, and trust in the justice system be restored.
