जोधपुर में हुई घटना दुर्भाग्यपूर्ण है, प्रदेश में कहीं भी साम्प्रदायिक सौहार्द्र को प्रभावित करने वाली घटना से समाज में शांति एवं कानून व्यवस्था को क्षति पहुंचती है। अपराधी चाहे किसी धर्म, जाति या वर्ग का हो अपराध में उसकी संलिप्तता पाये जाने पर उसे बख्शा नहीं जाए।
“It is a regrettable event that there is a tense environment at Jalori Gate, Jodhpur due to fights between two groups,” Chief Minister Gehlot tweeted.
