CBI harassing innocent people: Bishnois, Jats
Leaders of Bishnoi and Jat community at a large rally in Jodhpur on Sunday came down heavily on the CBI by alleging that its sleuths in the name of investigation in Bhanwari Devi case were harassing the innocent people. They also alleged that Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot is leaving no stone unturned to politically marginalise leaders these communities, which would prove counter-productive for him and the Congress party.
The leaders of Kisan Kesari Sangharash Samiti, clamed that it was the rally of all the Chhatis Kaum (36 castes and communities), but it was more of a show of strength of Bishnois and Jats. Supporters of sacked Minister Mahipal Maderna and Congress MLA from Luni, Malkhan Singh, who are behind bars for their alleged involvement in kidnapping and killing the nurse, were behind organsing the rally, which was held at Gaushala Ground.
Keeping in the view the charged atmosphere against the CBI, tight security arrangements were made at the venue, where people started arriving around noon. Kuldeep Bishnoi, Lok Sabha member from Hissar and patron of All India Bishnoi Samaj, said if harassment of innocent people was not stopped, they would take to the streets of Jaipur and Delhi. He said that they would soon meet the President of India to submit a memorandum against the style of functioning of the agency in this case. They would also meet the Chief Minister to desist him for systematically destroying the leadership of these communities in western Rajasthan to serve his political interests.
The rally was also addressed by former BJP Lok Sabha member, Jaswant Bishnoi and other leaders of the Jat community. Generally, women of these communities stays away from these rallies, but Sunday’s rally witnessed a good turnout of women members as well.
Speakers said that they had no objection in interrogating the culprits in this case by the CBI, but there is not justification in quizzing persons like the elderly Amari Devi, mother of Malkhan Singh and wife of stalwart Bishnoi leader, Late Ram Singh Bishnoi, who is not even remotely involved in the case
In fact, the CBI invited the wrath of social organisations for summoning Amari Devi for two days. As she could not bear the stress of questioning, she was taken ill and was hospitalised. Since then the CBI sleuths, who are getting ready to file the final chargesheet in the case, have become defensive. Speakers said that agency sleuths in this case were not impartial and working on a particular line of instructions.
