Nationalist Congress Party (NCP-SCP) leader Rohit Pawar said that action should be taken against the accused involved in the Nagpur violence. Speaking to ANI, Pawar said, "When the CM and the DCM gave a statement yesterday, in which they indirectly accepted that it was an intelligence failure. If something is preplanned and the police do not know about it, then it is an intelligence failure. Either it is an intelligence failure, or if it is that they did not act even when they had the intelligence, this means they let the violence happen. If anyone is involved in violence, then action will be taken against them; they may be from any community." (ANI)
