’If Nagpur violence was pre-planned, it is your failure’: Congress counters Fadnavis’ ’clash premeditated’ remark





A day after the Nagpur violence, Congress leader Nana Patole on Tuesday hot out at Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis, calling it the failure of the government and the police.

Speaking to reporters, as quoted by ANI, Nana Patole said, “If the Chief Minister and Home Minister of the state call this incident pre-planned, then it is clear that it is the failure of the government and the police. He (Maharashtra CM Devendra Fadnavi) himself is from Nagpur; if this incident is happening there, then it is the failure of the government… They don’t believe in Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj; their only aim is to destroy Maharashtra…The government was involved in the incident in Nagpur …”

On Monday, tension escalated in central Nagpur as stones were thrown at police officers amidst unfounded rumours that Quran had been desecrated during a protest by a right-wing group demanding the removal of Aurangzeb’s tomb. The Monday evening incident, which was reported from Mahal area of Nagpur, resulted in injuries to four individuals, according to official reports.
