An incident of political violence shocked Odisha’s Kendrapara district after the car of BJP leader Geetanjali Sethi was set ablaze under suspicious circumstances. The incident, which occurred late at night, has triggered concern among local residents and intensified political tensions in the region.
According to preliminary information, the vehicle was parked when unidentified miscreants allegedly torched it. The fire caused significant damage to the car, though no injuries were reported as Geetanjali Sethi was not present at the spot at the time of the incident. Locals alerted the authorities after noticing flames, following which fire services rushed to control the blaze.
Leaders of the Bharatiya Janata Party condemned the act, calling it a deliberate attempt to intimidate opposition voices and disrupt democratic activity. Party members demanded a thorough investigation and swift action against those responsible, stating that such incidents undermine law and order and threaten political discourse.
Police officials in Kendrapara have launched an investigation and are examining CCTV footage from nearby areas to identify the culprits. While the motive behind the attack is yet to be confirmed, authorities have not ruled out political rivalry as a possible factor. Security in the area has been tightened to prevent further escalation.
