Three back-to-back murders in Patna in a fortnight, Oppn slams Nitish govt over law and order
Three back-to-back killings in Bihar's capital Patna within a span of days have triggered a political firestorm with opposition raising serious questions over the Nitish Kumar-led government's handling of law and order in the state. The victims include a BJP leader, a prominent businessman, and a grocery shop owner. Bihar opposition leader Tejashwi Yadav (left)), and chief minister Nitish Kumar (right).(File Photo) The latest in the string of murders was reported on Saturday, when BJP leader Surendra Kewat was shot dead by bike-borne assailants near his farm in Sheikhpura village along the Bihta–Sarmera State Highway, reported Live Hindustan. Earlier the same day, Vikram Jha, a grocery shop owner originally from Darbhanga, was fatally shot outside his shop in Patna's Ram Krishna Nagar area. These killings come close on the heels of the murder of Gopal Khemka, a businessman and BJP functionary who was shot dead outside his residence in Gandhi Maidan on the night of July 4, considered one of the most secured localities in the city. Opposition hits out at Bihar government Former deputy chief minister and RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav on Sunday lashed out at the ruling NDA alliance, accusing it of losing control over the law and order situation. 'And now, a BJP leader shot dead in Patna! What to say, and to whom? Is there anyone in the NDA government willing to listen to the truth or admit their mistakes?' Yadav posted on X. He further attacked Kumar, saying, 'Everyone knows about the CM's health, but what are the two useless BJP deputy chief ministers doing? No statement from the corrupt Bhunja-DK party?' Congress leader Salman Khurshid on Saturday raised concerns over the deteriorating law and order situation in Bihar, calling it a "matter of sorrow" and urging citizens to hold the government accountable. "Can anyone say anything about law and order? This is a matter of sorrow... Murders are happening, and looting is occurring. No one can be satisfied by seeing this. This is a matter of concern for everyone... It is the responsibility of those outside the government to inform the government that what is happening under them is not right," Khurshid told news agency ANI. Union minister and Lok Janshakti Party (LJP) leader Chirag Paswan also questioned the administration over the recent string of murders. In a post on 'X', he said, 'How many more murders will Biharis have to face? It is beyond comprehension what the responsibility of the Bihar Police is.' BJP responds, says 'no criminal will be spared' Responding to the criticism, BJP leader Syed Shahnawaz Hussain defended the state government, saying, 'The murder in Bihar is unfortunate. Those responsible for this will not be spared.' 'The police is investigating the matter. However, the language in which Tejashwi Yadav is speaking about Bihar's law and order is not right. During their government, criminals used to roam around freely but today, no criminal is spared.' he said targeting the RJD. Police probe underway in latest killings According to officials cited by the Hindi daily, 52-year-old Surendra Kewat was returning from his farmland after switching off a water pump when two men on a motorcycle opened fire. He was rushed to AIIMS Patna but succumbed to injuries during treatment. Earlier the same day, 40-year-old Vikram Jha was shot outside his grocery shop by an unidentified man who arrived on a motorcycle and fled after firing. Speaking to reporters, SP Patna East Parichay Kumar said: 'Vikram Jha, a resident under PS Ram Krishna Nagar limits, was shot at some time ago. When he was being taken to the hospital, he died… On analysing the CCTV footage, we found that the deceased owned a grocery store, and a person came on a motorbike and shot him. There seems to be no evidence of robbery in the store.' The officer added that there were no prior complaints or known threats, and forensic teams were examining the scene to determine a motive. The killing spree began earlier this month with the daylight murder of Gopal Khemka, a prominent businessman and BJP functionary, outside his residence in Patna's Gandhi Maidan area. Khemka had reportedly asked for police protection before the attack.

BJP leader's murder: RJD slams Nitish govt, NDA assures strict action against culprits
The political temperature in Bihar soared on Sunday after BJP leader and former Kisan Morcha functionary Surendra Kewat was shot dead on Patna's outskirts, intensifying criticism of the Nitish Kumar-led NDA government over "spiralling" crime in the state. Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) leader and Leader of Opposition in the Bihar Assembly, Tejashwi Yadav, led the charge, calling out the state administration's alleged failure to curb growing violence. Taking to the social media platform X, Tejashwi wrote in Hindi (loosely translated as), "And now, a BJP leader shot dead in Patna! What to say, and to whom? Is there anyone in the NDA government willing to listen to the truth or admit their mistakes?" "Everyone knows about the CM's health, but what are the two useless BJP deputy chief ministers doing?" he added, accusing the NDA of leadership vacuum and governance failures in the state. According to police officer Kanhaiya Singh, two motorcycle-borne men gunned down Kewat when he was working in his fields. "Kewat was rushed to AIIMS, where he succumbed to his injuries during treatment," Singh said. An investigation has been launched, and raids are being conducted to nab the attackers. Kewat's murder adds to a string of recent violent crimes in the state capital, including the high-profile killings of businessman Gopal Khemka, sand trader Ramakant Yadav, and most recently, Vikram Jha -- the owner of Trishna Mart -- who was gunned down in the Zakariapur area. Reacting to the incidents, RJD Rajya Sabha MP Manoj Jha told IANS, "Every other day, the law and order situation in Bihar is worsening. There's either a murder or a rape. What have they turned Bihar into? Bihar is on autopilot mode, and turbulence has become normal here." While the Opposition mounted a scathing attack, the ruling parties defended the government's record. Speaking to IANS, BJP national spokesperson Shahnawaz Hussain said, "Law and order is maintained in Bihar. There is good governance under Nitish Kumar. The culprits in today's incident will meet the same fate as those behind Gopal Khemka's murder. Tejashwi Yadav should avoid speaking on such topics, especially considering how, under RJD, police, government, and criminals worked together." JD(U) spokesperson Neeraj Kumar, acknowledging the incident, added, "No one is denying the crime occurred, but appropriate action will be taken. Data from the National Crime Records Bureau shows crime has reduced in Bihar, including murder rates. The government is committed to bringing culprits to justice." However, RJD national spokesperson Mrityunjay Tiwari dismissed these claims and told IANS, "Every day, every time one murder or other is being committed across the state. Every day, several are being killed. Nitish Kumar has lost his senses. Tejaswi Yadav is repeatedly questioning the government over the rising crime, but there is no answer." "There is anarchy in Bihar. The jungle raj is at its peak. The criminals are not afraid of anything, and they are committing crimes anywhere they want. Nitish Kumar's power has vanished," he added.

BJP leader shot dead by bike-borne assailants in Patna
Patna, July 13: In yet another brazen killing that has rocked Bihar's capital, BJP leader and former Kisan Morcha functionary Surendra Kewat was shot dead by two unidentified assailants while working in his fields, police confirmed on Sunday. The incident comes just days after the shocking murder of businessman Gopal Khemka outside his home. According to police officer Kanhaiya Singh, Kewat was shot by two men on a motorcycle. "Surendra was working in the fields when unidentified men shot him dead. He was rushed to AIIMS, but he succumbed to his injuries during treatment," Singh told reporters. The police said the statements of Kewat's family members and other relatives have been recorded, and efforts are underway to trace and apprehend the culprits. Forensic teams have been deployed to the crime scene, and multiple raids are being conducted in and around Patna to nab the absconding shooters. The murder has triggered a fresh political storm in Bihar, with Opposition leaders blaming the NDA government for the rising crime graph. Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) leader and Leader of Opposition in the Bihar Assembly, Tejashwi Yadav, lashed out at the state administration over the successive killings. Taking to X, Yadav wrote in Hindi (loosely translated), "And now, a BJP leader shot dead in Patna! What to say, and to whom? Is there anyone in the NDA government willing to listen to the truth or admit their mistakes?" "Everyone knows about the CM's health, but what are the two useless BJP deputy chief ministers doing?" he added, accusing the NDA of leadership vacuum and governance failures in the state. In a redux of prominent businessman Gopal Khemka and sand trader Ramakant Yadav's murder a few days ago, a trader from Patna, Vikram Jha, owner of Trishna Mart, was gunned down in a late-night incident in the Zakariapur area under Ram Krishna Nagar Police Station limits on Friday. In recent days, high-profile cases have raised safety concerns in the city. After the Gopal Khemka murder case, there was a deadly attack on sand trader Ramakant Yadav, and most recently, trader Vikram Jha was also gunned down in a late-night incident.
