CM Bhajanlal Sharma’s foreign trip came under controversy, who filed the petition in the court

Jaipur : A petition has been filed in a Jaipur court on Thursday to cancel the anticipatory bail granted to Chief Minister Bhajanlal Sharma in the case of communal violence in Gopalgarh town of Bharatpur, Rajasthan in 2011. Petitioner Sanwarmal Chaudhary, through his lawyer, argued in the court of Jaipur Additional District Judge Anamika Saharan that Chief Minister Sharma was granted bail in the case with certain conditions, including taking prior permission of the court for foreign travel.

There was communal violence in Gopalgarh in 2011

The Chief Minister is currently on a foreign trip in connection with the ‘Rising Rajasthan Investors Summit-2024’ to meet investors. The petitioner’s lawyer said that Sharma is an accused in the 2011 communal violence case in Gopalgarh, Bharatpur. About 10 people were killed in this violence. The CBI is investigating the case.

‘Court’s directions were violated’

Petitioner’s lawyer Sagar Chaudhary said, ‘The Chief Minister was granted anticipatory bail by the court in the case. He has violated the court’s instructions as he is currently on a foreign trip. The court has fixed the hearing of the case on September 24.’

What did Congress say?

Leader of Opposition in the Assembly Tikaram Julie has also raised questions on Bhajanlal Sharma’s foreign travel. He tweeted, ‘It has come to light through the media that advocate Shri Sanwar Chaudhary has filed a petition in the court stating that Chief Minister Shri Bhajanlal Sharma has violated the conditions of anticipatory bail by traveling abroad without the permission of the court during the ongoing trial of FIR RC/05/SC-III/2011, PS CBI-III, New Delhi related to Gopalgarh riots. In this case, Shri Bhajanlal ji was granted conditional anticipatory bail on 10.09.2013 in which going outside the country’s border without the prior permission of the court is not permitted. But the Chief Minister has gone on a trip to South Korea and Japan without the permission of the court.’ He further wrote that if the Chief Minister himself will play with the law in this way, then what message will go to the public. The Chief Minister should immediately put forth his stand clearly on this matter so that the truth can come out in front of the public.
