Car-borne miscreants attacked the convoy of Bhim Army Chief Chandrashekhar Azad in Deoband, Saharanpur on Wednesday evening. In rapid firing, a bullet came out touching Chandrashekhar’s back. At present, he is out of danger and he will be discharged from the hospital soon. At the same time, the police recovered the car of the attackers and detained four suspects.
Amidst all this, Chandrashekhar has targeted the government regarding the attack and said that the government cannot scare them with bullets and guns. The Bhim Army Chief tweeted, “I express my heartfelt gratitude to the friends, leaders and well-wishers who condemned the deadly attack on me in an ambush yesterday and expressed condolences to me. Even if an incident like yesterday’s today Happened with me but any time in future such incidents can happen with heads of any other political parties and their supporters.”
He further said, “There are two reasons for this. The first is that the law and order situation in Uttar Pradesh is getting worse and worse and the second is that the government is providing protection to the criminals on the basis of caste and religion, which is being supported by the government.” The morale of the criminals is high. Today they are neither afraid of the law nor of the police. Today both the democratic values of India and the Constitution of Babasaheb are in danger. When the criminals roaming fearlessly with the support of the government are trying to silence the voices of politicians like me. If you can attack, openly fire several rounds of bullets, then you cannot even imagine how much oppression and atrocities are being committed on the daughters-in-law, Dalits, backward, tribals and minorities of this state.
‘Chandrashekhar cannot be cowed down by bullets and guns’
The Bhim Army Chief said, “Drunken by power, people have become so mad that they are hell-bent on eradicating the voices raised against them. Earlier, these people used to misuse ED, CBI and Income Tax officials for this, then Fake police started conducting encounters and now government-backed criminals are directly attacking with guns and bullets to eliminate opposition leaders. They are forgetting that the history of India is full of sacrifices of our forefathers. They are forgetting that Even today, our Bahujan Samaj is working to protect this country by giving its life on the borders without any fear. I am also a part of the same society. That’s why you can neither make Chandrashekhar bow down with bullets and guns nor intimidate nor disturb him. Can. My 56 inch chest is real not fake.”
‘Government’s failure to attack me’
He said that the fatal attack on me is the failure of the government because the security of the people of the state is the responsibility of the government and I am also a responsible citizen of the state. Accepting the moral responsibility of giving protection to fearless criminals in the BJP state, the Chief Minister should resign with immediate effect.
