BJP’s Nyay Yatra to meet the riot victims was stopped before reaching Karauli. After this, there was a lot of ruckus on the Dausa-Karauli border.
“In other states where riots broke out, houses were demolished by govts. Neither PM nor CM has a right as such where without any investigation such an action can be taken. Only the law has prerogative to do so & it should take its own course,” added Gehlot.
