As a defence attorney it is my responsibility of safeguarding our nation, citizens , foreigners etc from any kind of threat regardless of caste, sex ,creed, race, religion. Everyone is should be treated equally and unconditionally. If any foreigners and citizens who have been committed any crime should be punished as per the law of the land. As a defence secretary I urged the court to cancel the visa of the foreigners permanently and black list them and also take the permission to handle over the case to interpol, which will help in filing the case against these foreigners in respective countries.

It is necessary to understand that it is not a matter that I take action against the criminal because I have a daughters and I have same feelings like the victims parents but it is our responsibility to take action whether you have daughter or not, you have to stand against the crime regardless of any thing and without fear.
