Pune: NCP (SP) Executive President and MP Supriya Sule criticised the State Home Department over the deteriorating law and order on Tuesday (October 8).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
She said, \u201cLaw and order has collapsed in Pune and elsewhere in the State. We are proud of the Maharashtra Police. However, compromises are being made in the Secretariat. Hence, criminals are not scared of the police. State Home Minister Devendra Fadnavis should explain why the crime rate is increasing in the State.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sule was addressing the media after participating in an agitation staged by the Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) against the rising crime in Pune and across the State. Sule said, \u201cThe accused in the Bopdev Ghat gang rape case have not been arrested a week after the incident.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201c\u2019Data speaks louder\u2019 in Maharashtra and at the Centre indicate that the State\u2019s crime graph is soaring. Is it not Devendra Fadnavis\u2019s responsibility to address it? Why is crime going up? Are criminals not afraid of the police, their uniform? Fadnavis should answer these questions. The Income Tax Department and the Enforcement Directorate are used to harass opposition leaders, why are they not using these agencies to trace the accused in the Bopdev Ghat case?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Commenting on the postponement of cooperative institutions\u2019 elections, she said, \u201cWhat was the need to postpone the elections? This means the government is frightened to hold the elections. The civic and zilla parishad elections are not held. Now, cooperative institutions\u2019 elections have been deferred. The Yuva Sena of Aaditya Thackeray won the Mumbai University Senate elections. They are scared of the outcome of elections.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sule reacted to Sushma Andhare\u2019s comment on the Hadapsar seat. She said, \u201cSushma Andhare was not present at the MVA meeting yesterday. I will not comment till the final list is published. I will not further cause any misunderstanding in the MVA. I am a responsible MP. I will call her up and seek details.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Threats being issued in Baramati, Indapur<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sule alleged, \u201cPeople were threatened during the Lok Sabha elections. This is democracy. It cannot be browbeaten by the \u2018invisible power\u2019. The Marathi people have self-respect. Politics is not run by being scared of Delhi or by threatening people. Pravin Mane, Appasaheb Jagdale and Bharat Shah are a part of my family. Mane was threatened by the BJP during the Lok Sabha poll. He was forced to campaign against me.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sule\u2019s allegations<\/p>\n\n\n\n
*Inflation, unemployment and corruption are the BJP government\u2019s \u2018gifts\u2019 to the people<\/p>\n\n\n\n
*\u2019Politics has still not become a circus because I take it seriously\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n
*Raj Thackeray, Nitin Gadkari have rightly commented on the condition of the State\u2019s economy<\/p>\n\n\n\n
*I will comment on the Haryana and J&K poll outcomes only after getting the complete results<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
