With police failing to make a break-through in the anti-superstition activist Narendra Dabholkar murder case even a month after the incident, Maharashtra BJP today demanded that Chief Minister Prithviraj Chavan should tender an apology.
"It has been a month since the killing of rationalist Narendra Dabholkar. The Pune crime branch is still clueless. The Chief Minister should apologise to the people for lack of progress in the probe," Leader of Opposition in the Legislative Council Vinod Tawde said here.
Tawde said he felt ashamed that in a progressive state such as Maharashtra, the killers of Dr Dabholkar were still at large.
"The probe should be handed over to a competent agency if the police are not able to arrest the culprits. It could be NIA or CBI," the BJP leader said.
