BJP leader Minister Sarang demanded answers from Congress leaders over the truck‑ramming incident involving TI in Devas, Madhya Pradesh, citing police officer Dilip Puri's involvement.
BJP minister Sarang raised serious concerns about a recent incident in Devas, Madhya Pradesh, where a tribal individual was allegedly run over by a truck. The case has drawn political attention after Khategaon police station in‑charge Dilip Puri was named in the investigation. Sarang urged Congress representatives to provide a clear response, specifically calling out local leader Jitu Patel for accountability.
The incident, reported from the Khategaon thana jurisdiction, has become a flashpoint between the ruling party and the opposition, with BJP accusing Congress of shielding the perpetrators. While details of the investigation remain limited, the minister emphasized the need for swift justice and transparent inquiry.
Congress leaders have yet to issue a formal statement, and the matter is expected to be discussed in upcoming party meetings. The demand for answers reflects broader tensions in the region over law‑and‑order issues and political rivalry.
Authorities have not disclosed further forensic or legal developments, but the focus remains on ensuring that the victim's family receives justice and that any culpable officials are held responsible.
The episode underscores the heightened political scrutiny of criminal cases in Madhya Pradesh, especially those involving vulnerable communities and local governance officials.
