Former chief minister Bhupinder Singh Hooda has said the investigation of the Manisha murder case should be handed over to the CBI on the demand of the family, as the role of the Haryana government and police in the case has so far been negligent and irresponsible.
“An unfortunate attempt is also being made to prove the whole case as a suicide and the criminals who carried out this brutal crime are still roaming free. They should be arrested as soon as possible and given the harshest punishment,” Hooda said while answering questions from journalists in Rohtak.
On this occasion, the former Haryana CM said the BJP had completely established hooliganism in Haryana. “Such incidents are coming to light every day. After Manisha's murder in Loharu, now a case of firing on children has come to light in Jind. Firing was done on artists in Gurugram,” he said while recounting the rising incidents of crime in the state.
He said three to four murders were being committed every day in the state. “Criminals commit crimes whenever they want and the government remains a mute spectator. Due to the deteriorating law and order situation, no new investment is coming to Haryana. Whereas before 2014, Haryana was the number one state in the country in terms of per capita investment,” he pointed out.

Hooda also reacted to the fake voter cases raised by Rahul Gandhi. He said the Election Commission, which was asking for an affidavit from Rahul Gandhi, should first give an affidavit itself. “The Election Commission should give in writing that there are no fake voters or two votes of one person anywhere. If the Commission gives it in writing, then we are ready to give it countless evidence,” he stated.
“The Commission is asking for an affidavit from Rahul Gandhi to cover up its misdeeds. Whereas the public has understood that the Commission is completely working like a team of BJP. This is a fatal situation for the democracy of the country, because democracy will remain strong only when all constitutional institutions work independently,” he added.
