Raising last month’s Arang incident in which three cattle transporters died after being chased by a bunch of youth and the Balodabazar arson incident in its adjournment motion, the Opposition party submitted that a dangerous situation of law and order was building up. Senior Congress leaders including AICC incharge for Chhattisgarh, Sachin Pilot, former Chief Minister Bhupesh Baghel and Chhattisgarh Congress unit president Deepak Baij participated in the protest. “The law and order situation has collapsed in Chhattisgarh where the graph of crimes, including rape, murder, and loot is going high,” Mr. Action shifted to the Assembly after 3 p.m. when Speaker Raman Singh allowed the discussion on the admissibility of the adjournment motion notice.
