New Delhi: Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Friday raised questions about the safety of the common people in Uttar Pradesh after eight policemen were shot dead in Uttar Pradesh’s Kanpur district.
“Another proof of hooliganism in Uttar Pradesh. When the police are not safe, how will the public be?” Rahul Gandhi said, quoting a news report.
यू.पी. में गुंडाराज का एक और प्रमाण। जब पुलिस सुरक्षित नहीं, तो जनता कैसे होगी?
