On Tuesday, the Mandsaur Congress Committee organized a human chain at Gandhi Square in protest of the death of Khategaon police station in-charge Dilip Puri. The chain aimed to draw attention to the alleged rise in activities of liquor, sand, mineral and drug mafias in the region. Puri's vehicle was reportedly run over by a truck allegedly carrying illicit liquor in Dewas district.
The District Congress Committee president, Mahendra Singh Gurjar, along with MLA Vipin Jain, joined party workers to demand stringent action and improved law and order. Gurjar accused the state's Chief Minister and Deputy Chief Minister of failing to address the growing mafia activities, even though they held the Home and Excise portfolios respectively.
He also highlighted recent deaths due to toxic liquor and alleged connections between Mandsaur district residents and an MD drug network. The party workers also called for a crackdown on illegal liquor trade and better protection for police personnel. The event concluded with a tribute to Dilip Puri and a two-minute silence.
