Jaipur, July 9 Former Rajasthan Deputy Chief Minister Sachin Pilot on Tuesday said that the state government should act tough against illegal mining.
“The confidence level of the criminal gets a boost if the government and administration sit with folded hands and do not take any action. Such incidents break the morale of the people,” the former Deputy Chief Minister said.
He also visited the residence of the head constable who was killed by the tractor of the sand mafia to offer condolences.
“The deceased used to work with the Police Department. The morale of the entire police force will be low. The government must take immediate action against the illegal mining,” the former Deputy Chief Minister said.
On the Kathua attack, the former Deputy Chief Minister said that such attacks are increasing while the Central government has claimed that everything is under control in Jammu and Kashmir.
“The government has claimed, in the House, that everything is fine and the situation is under control in J&K. However, our youth are being martyred there. The government must answer on the situation of J&K,” the former Deputy Chief Minister said.
He said that the situation in J&K is very serious and the Central government must clarify over its security situation.
