I don’t think this present administration value the lives of human being if not they won’t engaging in deadly act i.e resident doctors are on strike, killing of people everyday without bringing anyone to book, this is bad
We need justice in this country if not they will just be killing people like goat
I hope they will bring perpetrator to book without wasting time
We are so wicked to the extent that killing is nothing to us in this country
