Bhubaneswar (SunstarTV Bureau): A Pressmeet held by the state BJP, they informed that the BJD government in Odisha is beating the drum of honor. But NCRB report data show that women are probably neglected in Odisha. BJP state general secretary Lekhshree Samantasinghar said that the violence against women had increased with the encouragement of the state government.
He added that the penalty rate for convicts was only 9%. So criminals have the courage to commit more crimes. Police are searching for the culprit. Most criminals are leaders of the ruling party or supporters of the ruling party. So the police are under pressure. 1.21 criminal cases were registered in 2019 and 1.34 lakh criminal cases have registered in 2020. The number of rape cases has risen to 20 this year, with 3,065 women abducted. The crime rate is four times higher than the national average. While the number of crimes against women has decreased across the country during Covid, it has increased by 10% in Odisha. The number of Cyber Crimes has increased by 76% as compared to last year. 60% crime rates were increased the specific women community of SC and ST.
The BJP has also complained that the police are traveling for illegal activities like Swiggy Boy but are not investigating the real crime. A 15-year-old boy is drowning in the capital’s drains, but the chief minister has not expressed regret. We condemn it.
