Congress leaders, including Govind Singh Dotasra, sat overnight outside the Jaipur Police Commissioner's office demanding action on Ritu Barala's FIR, and announced a march to Jaipur after no response.
Congress leaders, including Govind Singh Dotasra, took to the streets outside the Jaipur Police Commissioner's office on the night of Thursday, demanding that authorities act on the FIR filed by Ritu Barala. The protest was sustained overnight, with the leaders holding signs and chanting slogans calling for justice.\n\nDespite the continuous presence of the protestors, the police did not take any visible action to address the demands. In response to the lack of progress, the Congress party escalated its stance by announcing a march to Jaipur, signalling a more aggressive approach to pressuring the authorities.\n\nThe move reflects the party’s intent to highlight the perceived delay in the investigation and to rally public support for the case. It also underscores the political sensitivity surrounding the FIR, which has attracted attention from both local and national media.\n\nThe march, if executed, could bring additional scrutiny to the police department and potentially influence the handling of the case, as the Congress seeks to demonstrate its commitment to accountability and justice.
