When the horn was sounded, I came. Before I could open the gate, I had already heard the sound. When I opened the gate, I saw that sir (Gopal Khemka) was lying in the hall."Who Is Gopal Khemka?Gopal Khemka was a reputed businessman by profession and a BJP leader. Khemka's son, Gunjan, was murdered three years ago. Purnea MP Pappu Yadav alias Rajesh Ranjan, rushed to the spot after receiving the information last night. In a post on X, he slammed the Nitish Kumar-led government, saying "no one is safe in Bihar". "Bihar has become a sanctuary for criminals! Nitish ji, please spare Bihar," he said. According to Yadav, when Khemka's son was killed, if the government "at that time had not become a partner to the criminals and had taken strict action against them, Gopal Khemka would not have been murdered today"."Gopal Khemka was a fine businessman and great social worker. His murder near his house, Gandhi Maidan Police Station is nearby... his family said the police arrived at the spot 1.30 hours after being informed," said BJP leader Ram Kripal Yadav. "This is a cause of concern for the administration. Officials should take it very seriously and the murderers should be nabbed and given strict punishment. The opposition is raising questions on law and order just for politics. Law and order is under control, however, this is an unfortunate incident which should not have happened," he claimed further."We need to understand that the (Nitish) government has lost its credibility. The honourable CM is in an unconscious state. The police should have been involved in basic intelligence, however, they are working to nab liquor smugglers so that they can earn something. The people have lost trust on the government," RJD leader Rishi Mishra said.Gopal Khemka's Shankar Khemka said, "As people usually ask – whether there were any threats, any disputes, or any warning signs – we as a family are not aware of anything like that."
