Congress Condemns Bulldozer Justice in Madhya Pradesh

Senior Congress leaders, including Priyanka Gandhi and Mallikarjun Kharge, have condemned the recent demolition of properties linked to individuals accused of participating in protests in Madhya Pradesh's Chhatarpur, labeling the actions as 'bulldozer justice' that is both barbaric and unjust. Priyanka Gandhi emphasized that only courts should determine guilt and penalties, arguing against punishing the accused's family and demolishing their homes without due process. Kharge criticized these actions as targeting minorities and violating constitutional principles, asserting that such governance is inhumane and unacceptable. The Congress party demands an end to these practices, calling for adherence to the law and respect for human rights. The situation has drawn broader attention, with organizations like Amnesty International urging the cessation of unlawful demolitions and proper compensation for affected families. This incident highlights ongoing tensions in BJP-ruled states regarding the treatment of minority communities.
