Congress National General Secretary Randeep Singh Surjewala has held a big attack on Naib Singh Saini government of Haryana on Sunday (July 20) in a press conference in Chandigarh. He said that Haryana has drowned in the swamp of crime and has become a situation like ‘Gangs of Wasseypur’.

Surjewala alleged that Saini has completely failed as Chief Minister and Home Minister and the government has succumbed to the mafia. Demanding the resignation from Saini, he said that if the government cannot protect the law and the constitution, then it has no right to stay in power.

3 murder every day, 45 people missing- Surjewala

Surjewala said that where earlier there were reports of players’ victory and investment in the newspapers of Haryana, now only paper leaks, corruption, lathicharge on farmers and drugs are seen. According to PTI, he said that dozens of gangs like Lawrence Bishnoi, Bambiha, Bhau, Kaushal Chaudhary, Goldie Brar, Vikas Gulia are active in Haryana.

He said that in the beginning of 2025, the government itself admitted that 80 gangs are active in the state. According to the NCRB, in 2024, 966 murders took place in the state, an average of 3 murder, 45 missing and 46 crimes were registered every day. Between January and March 2025, 4137 people went missing, most of which are cases of kidnapping.

Government denied these allegations

At the same time, a spokesperson of the Haryana government dismissed these allegations outright and said that the claims of the opposition are factless and misleading. He said that many strict steps have been taken under the government’s ‘zero tolerance on crime’. Security of women, control over cyber crime and concrete action is being taken against drug and mafia.

The spokesperson also said that if the Congress leaders compared the 2005-14 figures to 2014-24, then they do not make such irresponsible statements. For example, the number of murder cases in 2014 was 1106 which declined to 966 in 2024.

The government said that between January 1 and June 30, 2025, a decrease in many major crimes has been recorded. Since 2023, 433 prize criminals, 248 gangsters and criminals involved in 792 serious cases have been arrested by the Special Task Force (STF).

Chief Minister Saini recently held a meeting with the police and district magistrates and directed strict action against the culprits. It was claimed by the government that the security of the people of the state is paramount and maintaining law and order is the primary responsibility of the government. No laxity will be tolerated.

Congress on EVM: The Congress has once again raised serious questions about EVMs. These questions about EVM have arisen after the report of Tulsi Gabbard, director of US National Intelligence. In the report of Tulsi Gabbard, many serious things have been kept about EVM. On this, Congress MP Randeep Singh Surjewala said that the problems that National Intelligence of America National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard have told about EVM are very worrying.

The Congress leader said, in his report, three big things about EVM have come out. The first is that all these machines can be hacked? Second, EVM cannot be believed. The vote cast in the third EVM can be changed. Randeep Surjewala said that it has been more than 24 hours, this report came out and there are some questions from our government. The first is that the Election Commission and the Central Government are silent on it? Election Commission is quoting sources as saying that EVM is correct, then why does not come forward and give a statement? Should the Supreme Court not take cognizance of this?

Government surrounds the issue of Pagsase

At the same time, on another issue, Randeep Singh Surjewala surrounded the central government and said that in 2019, the Government of India was spying on many leaders, journalists and many other people. This was being done through the pagasase. This case is also going on in the Supreme Court. The Modi government had made the matter a lot without giving a statement. Rahul Gandhi also raised questions.

Surjewala said that Meta has also filed a case against the Israeli company that has made Pegasses in this case. During this time a lot of things have come out. Through this, the exhibit 40 has been installed, in which the list of 52 countries has been revealed. The place where the pagasse was spied. India is second in this list. He said that the information that has come out, then it should be kept before the Supreme Court.

Surjewala said that there are some questions from our central government about this too. The first is when the Modi government will respond to this? Second, is it not proved now that the Israeli company did not buy a pagasus? The third question is which 100 people of our country spied? The fourth is whether its permission was taken from the court or was it spied with permission from anyone? The fifth question was asked, who allowed this pagasase to buy and what money was given from the government budget to buy it?

What did Surjewala say on violence in Bengal about Waqf law?

Apart from this, Randeep Singh Surjewala said that violence is not solved anything. If someone damages government property, then legal action should be taken on it. He said that this government brings such a law that hatred spreads in the country. Therefore, apart from committing violence, those who incite violence are equally responsible. The violence that spreads in the name of Lord Rama and Hanuman reflects their perverted mentality.
