Fadnavis said in the state assembly recently that Suryavanshi had told a magistrate that he was not tortured and the CCTV footage also doesn’t show any evidence of brutality.After meeting Suryavanshi’s family, Gandhi claimed, “The youth was killed because he was a Dalit and was protecting the Constitution. This is a cent per cent custodial death. The police have murdered him.””The chief minister lied in the assembly to give a message to the police. The RSS ideology is to wipe out the Constitution,” the Congress leader charged.Gandhi demanded that the matter be resolved and those who killed the man be punished.”This is not politics, there has been a murder and action has to be taken,” he said.Asked who was responsible for the Parbhani incident, Gandhi said, “Ideology is responsible for this and since the chief minister has spoken, he too is responsible.”Later, Rahul also met the family of Vijay Wakode, who had died during a protest in Parbhani following the violence.Earlier, Rahul arrived at Nanded airport from Delhi and travelled to Parbhani by road.He was accompanied by AICC in-charge for Maharashtra Ramesh Chennithala, state Congress chief Nana Patole and other leaders.
