The Rajasthan police today detained BJP leader Kirodi Lal Meena, who was part of a protest in Jaipur by widows of soldiers killed in the Pulwama terror attack demanding jobs for families, and other issues. Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot accused Mr Meena of using the widows for political gains. मैं अपने समर्थकों के साथ सामोद बालाजी के दर्शन करने जा रहा था, लेकिन सामोद थाना पुलिस ने मुझे रोका और मेरे साथ दुर्व्यवहार व हाथापाई की। क्या वीरांगनाओं के साथ खड़ा होना इतना बड़ा गुनाह है कि @ashokgehlot51 सरकार एक जनप्रतिनिधि के साथ इस तरह का आचरण कर रही है? pic.twitter.com/OqkuLH2ZcB शहीदों के बच्चों का हक मारकर किसी अन्य रिश्तेदार को नौकरी देना कैसे उचित ठहराया जा सकता है?जब शहीद के बच्चे बालिग होंगे तो उन बच्चों का क्या होगा?उनका हक मारना उचित है क्या? pic.twitter.com/oUBEoklIDl
Widows of the CRPF jawans killed during the 2019 terrorist attack were removed from their protest site, outside Congress leader Sachin Pilot's residence, in Jaipur at around 3 am today and shifted to hospitals near their respective residential areas.
The BJP slammed the state government, calling the action "an insult to the widows" and accused it of not fulfilling the promises made to the families.
"I was going to visit Samod Balaji with my supporters, but the Samod police stopped me and abused and manhandled me. Is it such a big crime to stand with the brave women that the @ashokgehlot51 government is behaving like this with a public representative?" Mr Meena tweeted in Hindi along with video clips of his altercation with the police.
