Pointing to the ‘deteriorating’ law and order in State, Shettar seeks severe action in the latest murder case

The former Chief Minister and BJP leader Jagadish Shettar has demanded severe punishment for the guilty in the murder of Anjali Ambiger of Hubballi.

“We are with the grieving family in this moment. We demand strict punishment to the offender,” Mr. Shettar said in Belagavi on Wednesday.

“It seems law and order has deteriorated in the State. The Congress government has repeatedly failed to maintain law and order. There is no protection for women under the Congress government. Strict instructions should be issued to the police to arrest the accused and ensure him a severe punishment,” he said.
