Abhay Singh Chautala alleged that Nafe Singh ji had recently asked for security to the CM, Home Minister, DGP and Commissioner, fearing an attack on him. At that time the government did politics and did not provide security. Is the government not equally guilty in this?”
Haryana Government Home Minister Anil Vij while giving his response said that I have asked the officials to take immediate action in this matter. STF has also swung into action…The incident is being investigated.

INLD leader Abhay Chautala held Haryana government responsible for the murder of Nafe Singh Rathi:
INLD General Secretary Abhay Chautala while talking to the media said, “The Haryana government is completely responsible for this murder. Only 6 months ago, Nafe Singh Rathi Saheb had told me that the police themselves had told him that he was in danger, he could be attacked at any time.
“I immediately spoke to the SP of Jhajjar and warned him that your policemen are aware of Nafe Singh Rathi Saheb and you should provide him security. Nafe Singh ji had written letters to the police, Chief Minister and Home Minister of the state and had also written a letter to the CID chief demanding security. “Despite this, no security was provided to them and no security was provided to them and they continued to provide security to those who were involved in this threat.”
