Chandigarh, September 5
The Haryana Sarvjan Party (HSP) has asked Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar to call an emergency meeting of the Vidhan Sabha to evaluate the law and order situation in the state and the damage caused to public and private property due to violence by supporters of Dera Sucha Sauda in Panchkula on August 25. “It is strange that over 40 persons were killed in Haryana and the government is not willing to fix responsibility for it,” HSP president Roshan Lal Arya said here today.
He said he hopes that the Chief Minister would stand by his commitment not to succumb to pressure from the Jat leadership that has given him a two-month ultimatum to resolve the reservation issue.
Arya, a former MLA who claims to be heading the first non-Jat party in Haryana, alleged that 350 women had gone missing during the BJP rule. Women were feeling unsafe, petty crimes such as snatching were rising. The industry was moving out due to repeated threats from the Jat leadership. The party has announced to hold a rally in Jind on October 1.
