Bengaluru (Karnataka) [India], January 17 (ANI): Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah said that the performance of the state in terms of conviction rate in cases of violence against Dalits is not satisfactory.
He was speaking at the annual conference of senior police officers held at the office of the State Director General of Police on Tuesday.
The Chief Minister said that if the victims are to have faith in the system, the quality of investigations into cases of atrocities must be improved. He gave instruction that a scientifically valid charge sheet should be submitted.
“Put a complete stop to the incidents of violence against women and children. Punishment should be increased. Otherwise, the blame will be on the DCPs themselves for this failure,” the CM warned the officers.
