Congress Demands Resignation of Maharashtra Home Minister After Shooting Incident Involving Tiger Shroff
Congress criticizes Maharashtra and central governments after shooting near Tiger Shroffs home, demanding accountability from officials.
Mumbai, October 19 (Daily Kiran) : The Congress party has launched a strong attack on both the Maharashtra and central governments following a shooting incident outside the residence of Bollywood actor Tiger Shroff in Mumbai. Congress leader Shama Mohammad expressed concern, stating that if a well-known actor is not safe in the city, the situation for ordinary citizens is even more alarming.
Mohammad questioned how Lawrence Bishnoi, currently imprisoned in a Gujarat jail, could issue orders for violence. She raised doubts about the awareness of Gujarat police, the state government, and Union Home Minister Amit Shah regarding Bishnoi’s activities. “If Tiger Shroff is not secure in Mumbai, what about the common people?” she asked.
The Congress leader referred to a video linked to the incident, in which the assailants claimed affiliation with Bishnoi’s gang, threatening further violence against those associated with actor Salman Khan. “The question is, where is Lawrence Bishnoi today? He is in jail, yet he continues to give orders. What does this say about the Gujarat police and the BJP government?” she demanded.
Mohammad also recalled a previous attack on Baba Siddiqui by Bishnoi’s gang, emphasizing that Mumbai police seem powerless to protect citizens. She called for Maharashtra’s Home Minister, Devendra Fadnavis, to resign if he cannot ensure public safety.
Addressing the issues facing the government, she pointed to rising unemployment and inflation, criticizing the administration for deflecting blame to the opposition instead of addressing pressing concerns. “When Rahul Gandhi fights for the rights of the people, they become fearful. He is on the streets and will not back down,” she stated, asserting that the countdown for the BJP’s downfall has begun.
Mohammad concluded by noting the growing support for Gandhi among various political leaders, highlighting a shared concern regarding electoral integrity in the country.
