BJP-ruled UP has become haven for lawlessness, anti-Dalit hate crime: Congress

New Delhi: The Congress has attacked the Yogi Adityanath-led Uttar Pradesh government saying the BJP-ruled state has become a haven for lawlessness and anti-Dalit hate crime.

According to Kashmir Media Service, the remarks came after the death of a Dalit boy due to gunshot injuries he sustained in a clash over the installation of a hoarding with a picture of Ambedkar. Sumesh Kumar, 17, who was returning home after writing his Class 10 examination, was shot during the clashes in which two more people got injured.

Congress general secretary Jairam Ramesh said, “Under the Yogi Sarkar’s jungle raj, Uttar Pradesh has become a haven for lawlessness and anti-Dalit hate crime.”

Expressing growing concern about the deteriorating law and order situation in UP, the Congress leader said, “The instances of lawlessness have become rampant, pointing to a perceived lack of effective policing and administration”.

Dalits, traditionally considered socially marginalized, have been a focal point of social justice movements in India. The Congress said that members of the Dalit community are facing targeted violence and discrimination, and the state government is failing to address these issues effectively.
