Violence not solution to any problem: BJP
ITANAGAR, Jun 19: The Bharatiya Janata Party Arunachal Pradesh expresses deep shock over the violent attack and ransacking of NRL Petrol pump near Naharlagun on Monday. Violence is not the solution to any problem in a civilized society and it is unhealthy for those in the management of an organizational set up for the noble purposes, the party said.
The apex body of students has important role to play in the fast changing society and they are supposed to be tomorrow’s guardians of the state and nation, and the society has high hope on the younger generations, the BJP said adding “because of some individuals the apex body of the students need not be allowed to misdirect the society.”
“It once again has established that the Judiciary and Executive tangle makes Arunachal Pradesh a safe heaven for the miscreants and even hard core criminals,’’ the party said in a release. The Party further said most of the time state police are alone to be blamed for the slip off, however, closer look shows that the ineffective and rot system is the root cause helping even those of hard core criminals to get away. It is high time CM Nabam Tuki led state Congress Govt should open its eyes and sense the gravity of the deteriorating law and order situations, the BJP said.
The Party also wanted to know why the state Govt should not have separate Home Minister.
