Gurjar dacoits threaten to blow up Raje's palace

Jaipur: Notorious dacoit chieftain, Jagan Gurjar and Ram Vilas Gurjar on Tuesday night threatened to blow up Rajasthan Chief Minister Vasundhara Raje's palace in Dholpur if the demand of the agitating Gurjar community was not conceded within 72 hours.

The dacoits conveyed the threat to a leading Hindi daily in Jaipur over telephone.

They had conveyed that they would take this drastic step only out of compulsion if the state government did not accept the Gurjar community's justified demand.

The dacoits have been reportedly present at Pilukapura where the Gurjars are sitting on dharna since May 23, seeking ST status for the community.
