‘Love jihad’ has now rocked Delhi as well: BJP on Shahabad Dairy stabbing

The Delhi BJP on Monday claimed the gruesome stabbing of a minor girl in the Shahabad Dairy area of northwest Delhi was a case of “love jihad”, and slammed the AAP for “trying to portray” it as an “ordinary” murder and a law and order issue.

In a statement, Delhi BJP president Virendra Sachdeva said the case should be tried in a fast track court.

No reaction was immediately available from the AAP over BJP’s charge. Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal issued a statement on Twitter earlier.

“A minor girl was brutally murdered in Delhi. This is very sad and unfortunate. The criminals have become fearless, there is no fear of the police. L-G sir, law and order is your responsibility, do something,” he said in his tweet in Hindi.
