In his letter, Bora stated that the entire people of the country are now under serious mental tension. “I must admit that those who have come out to roads, definitely they have defied Government orders, it is an offence. But considering the social situation, the mental tension of the people, I think it will be better for police to send them back, politely, to motivate the people not to come out inspite of torturing and beating”, Bora added.
