Uttar Pradesh: Senior Congress leader Pramod Tiwari on Thursday hit out at the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and said that the alleged knife attack on Bollywood actor Saif Ali Khan was a failure of the state government.
Speaking with the media Tiwari said that actors have a great fan following and the Indian government gets a lot of money in the form of taxes from them. Mumbai is becoming a capital of crime.
“With the firing incident outside the house of actor Salman Khan and then this incident, attack on former MLA, it seems that no one is safe in Mumbai. The law-and-order situation there is in shambles. The CM also has the Home Ministry. This is a complete failure of BJP.”
Earlier, Maharashtra CM Devendra Fadnavis defended his government saying that Mumbai was one of the safest cities.
“Mumbai is the safest place, and there is no doubt about it. Just based on one or two incidents, it won’t be right to say that Mumbai is unsafe. At the same time, it is also correct that if any such kind of incident happens, we should take it seriously and act accordingly and keep Mumbai safe,” Fadnavis said.
The shocking incident at the actor’s residence, in the early hours of Thursday, has raised concerns about safety in Mumbai and has left the actor’s fans and colleagues from the film fraternity deeply worried.
The incident occurred when an intruder allegedly confronted the actor’s maid at his residence in the ‘Satguru Sharan’ building in Bandra. As Saif attempted to intervene and de-escalate the situation, it escalated into a violent altercation, resulting in the actor sustaining several stab wounds.
Saif was rushed to Lilavati Hospital, where he underwent surgery under the supervision of a team of doctors.
