New Delhi, April 26 The Congress has slammed the Uttar Pradesh government over the deteriorating law and order situation in the state after five members of a family were discovered dead in their home in Etah under mysterious circumstances on Saturday morning.
Congress leader Jitin Prasada on Sunday demanded a fair investigation and said, "The family is already facing trauma and there should be fair inquiry. It should not look as if the police is trying to cover up as in earlier cases."
Prasada is one of the Brahmin faces from the Congress in the state, who took out a yatra last year against the incidents of the killings of the Brahmins and visited each place where the incident occurred.
He said that the "government is not keen to nab the culprits but to cover up each case. Even in the Kamlesh Tiwari murder case, the truth is not out."
He accused that the government of not willing to give justice as people of one community were being targetted.
Another Brahmin leader of Uttar Pradesh Pramod Tiwari said, "There is a question mark on the law and order situation in the state."
