Attacking the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) government in Gujarat over the assault on Dalits in the state, Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) on Wednesday said the Anandiben Patel-led dispensation has failed to maintain social harmony, which has resulted in total failure of law and order.

"The attack on innocent dalits in Una, Gujarat is most shameful and condemnable. The breakdown of law and order and social fabric of Gujarat is most unfortunate," senior NCP leader Praful Patel said in a statement.

He said he will visit Gujarat on Thursday to meet the families of the Dalit youths who were assaulted for allegedly skinning a cow carcass at Una last week.
 

He will also visit the injured admitted at a Rajkot hospital.

Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal will also meet the victims and their families on Friday.
