Delhi would've been safest had law and order been under AAP govt, says Kejriwal
New Delhi (PTI): Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Sunday said the national capital would have been the safest place had the law and order situation been under the AAP dispensation instead of the Lieutenant Governor.
His remarks came after two women were allegedly shot dead by unidentified assailants in R K Puram in southwest Delhi Sunday morning.
"Our thoughts are with the families of the two women. May their souls rest in peace. The people of Delhi have started feeling quite insecure. Those who are responsible for handling the law and order situation in Delhi are hatching conspiracy to take control of Delhi government instead of fixing the situation," Kejriwal said in a tweet in Hindi.
"Had the law and order situation been under the AAP dispensation instead of the LG, Delhi would have been the safest," he added. The AAP had on earlier occasions too attacked Lt Governor V K Saxena over the alleged "deteriorating" law and order situation in the city.
The deceased women have been identified as Pinky (30) and Jyoti (29).
The main accused and his associate are learned to have been arrested within hours of the incident.
Police said they received a call around 4.40 am from the victims' brother stating that his sisters were shot at in Ambedkar Basti. "Acting on information received, our police team reached the spot wherein it was found that two women were shot at and shifted to SJ Hospital, where they died," they added.
Preliminary investigation revealed that the assailants were after the victims' brother and the motive behind the incident seems to be a monetary dispute, the DCP said. 'The prime accused and his associate were arrested in connection with the incident," he said.
A case has been registered and further investigation is underway, the police official said.
