What is Nemawar Tribal family Massacre case?

Ground Report | New Delhi: Nemawar Tribal family Massacre; The case of Nemawar murder case of Dewas district has again heated up after six months. A war of words broke out between the ruling BJP and Congress in Madhya Pradesh after a leader of the opposition party slammed Governor Mangubhai Patel for not meeting a girl who led a 200-kilometre, 11-day foot march demanding justice for the killings of five of her kin.

A survivor of the family had undertaken a 'Nyay Yatra' from Nemawar to Bhopal demanding justice and reached the Raj Bhavan on Tuesday along with senior Congress leaders Digvijay Singh and Sajjan Singh Verma as well as party workers.

Congress leader Sajjan Singh Verma, annoyed over the girl not meeting Patel, said, "We were proud that a tribal man was appointed governor of Madhya Pradesh. What did we know the governor is afraid of coronavirus and does not do justice to his own community." Death is better than such a life."

Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan retaliated and tweeted that Congress leaders are violating political decorum. "Congress leaders are not only losing patience but are also losing their conscience. Such petty remarks against a person holding a constitutional position is not only a violation of political decorum but also the Indian tradition of wishing for the welfare of all." It is an insult. Your comment is a blow to the heart of the state," Chouhan said in a tweet.
