The tragic alleged suicide of Haryana IPS officer Y Puran Kumar has been termed a 'blot' on the nation by Congress leader Priyanka Gandhi Vadra. She has asserted that this incident is a grim reminder of the lack of safety and justice for Dalits under the BJP regime.

In a post on social media platform X, Gandhi claimed Kumar's suicide was driven by caste-based harassment. His eight-page final note purportedly blames senior officers, including a former Haryana DGP, for discrimination and humiliation. Gandhi's remarks were echoed by fellow Congress leader Rahul Gandhi after meeting Kumar's grieving family.

Kumar's wife, senior IAS officer Amneet P Kumar, is demanding the arrest of the accused senior officers, maintaining that no funeral rites or post-mortem will occur until action is taken. This high-profile case underscores ongoing racial disparities in India's social and political landscape.
