Killers definitely belong to the gang of Holy Saffron
Few? mean 30 weeks?or 40 weeks? or 500 weeks? or could be after Gujrat elections
They are arranging for paid "culprits" who will declare themselves as being part of some obscure, never heard of rightwing group...Huge payments would be made for their services....
Why is the minister wasting our time in giving these repeat-statements of no progress ?
Name of the Culprit is Lee Harvey Gowda
Hope they dont say 11 year old did it
Govt failed to give much security ti her. Atleast now govt can do justice by giving capital punishment to the killers
Prepare cell for another cheddi.
If Cong police caught, then it will reflect positively in election.
