BJP MP Shatrughan Sinha has slammed the Central government over the handling of the situation which followed in the national capital post the suicide committed by former soldier Ram Kishan Grewal over the issue of OROP.
In a series of tweets, Shatrughan Sinha said that the situation in Delhi could have been handled in a better and pragmatic manner.”I wish the Delhi situation after the deathof an army veteran was handled in a more mature, proper, practical and fair manner”, tweeted Shatrughan Sinha.Sinha was angry at the treatment that was meted out to the family members of former soldier Ram Kishan Grewal who according to him were beaten up in police station.
“Instead of showing sympathy, the martyr’s family was beaten up, that too in police station( where else)”, tweeted the BJP MP.
He further attacked his own government in the manner in which Congress Vice President Rahul Gandhi and Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal were detained after police used force on them for protesting Ram Kishan Grewal’s suicide. He said that opposition leaders were treated in a manner as if they were enemies.
“Leaders with huge following, who matter in society were detained with brute force and taken into custody. Why don’t we understand that opposition leaders are not enemies”, tweeted Sinha.
Slamming the Centre, Shatrughan raised questions whether Centre was trying to prove that power was permanent?”What are we trying to prove…that power is permanent? Good sense should prevail, cutting across party lines and leadership…sooner the better”, tweeted Shatrughan Sinha.
He demanded that Centre must address the OROP issue soon in the larger interest of the jawans and country.
