INLD chief Abhay Chautala receives death threats, son files police complaint in Chandigarh
Karan Singh Chautala, son of Indian National Lok Dal (INLD) chief Abhay Singh Chautala, submitted a written complaint at the police station in Chandigarh Sector 3 on Tuesday, alleging that he received a threatening WhatsApp call and message targeting his father. In his complaint, Karan Singh Chautala stated that the call came at around 11 pm on Monday from an unknown number, but the caller disconnected the call as soon as he answered it. Shortly afterwards, he received a WhatsApp message from the same number containing abusive language and a direct threat to his father, warning of severe consequences if Abhay Chautala 'comes in their way'. Karan further stated that a threatening call and message were also received on the phone of Ramesh Godara, the private secretary to Abhay Chautala. In this instance, the caller reportedly issued a 'final warning'. The complaint also refers to an earlier incident during Abhay Chautala's padyatra, when Ramesh Godara received two threatening WhatsApp calls and three voice messages warning of assassination. A case had been registered at the Jind Sadar police station, following which the INLD leader was granted Y+ category security. Karan also pointed to the recent murder of former MLA Nafe Singh Rathi, noting that the accused in that case remained absconding. He expressed concern over the safety of his father and family members, citing their outspoken criticism of the state government's policies and their role in raising public issues. In light of the repeated threats, Karan has urged the Chandigarh police to trace and arrest the unidentified caller and sought enhanced security measures for his father.

INLD chief Abhay Chautala gets death threat, son Karan lodges police complaint
Indian National Lok Dal chief Abhay Singh Chautala received a death threat from an unknown person who sent a voice message to his son Karan warning his father should "stay out of their way" or face the consequences. Karan Chautala on Wednesday (July 16, 2025) told reporters here that he has lodged a complaint with Chandigarh police. Mr. Karan said at around 11 p.m. on Tuesday, he received a WhatsApp call from an unknown number. The caller, however, disconnected the call after a few seconds. In his complaint, Mr. Karan said he then received a voice note from a foreign number in which the unknown person used inappropriate language against his father. Mr. Karan was asked to make his father understand that he should "stay out of their way" otherwise he too will be sent to the same place as the "pradhan", a reference to INLD's state unit chief Nafe Singh Rathee, who was shot dead by assailants in Jhajjar district's Bahadurgarh in February 2024. From the same number, a message was also sent to Abhay Chautala's private secretary who was told that this should be treated as a "final warning", the complainant alleged. Mr. Karan stated that in July 2023 too, his father had received a similar threat after which Haryana Police had registered a case. Abhay Chautala was later provided with Y category security cover. Our party INLD state president was killed in 2024 in which killers are still at large, he said. Mr. Karan said his father and his family have been raising voice on several issues including on drug issue, "deteriorating" law-and-order situation in Haryana. Apprehending that they may be harmed, Mr. Karan sought police action, trace the person who issued the threat and ensure safety of Abhay Chautala's entire family. Mr. Karan also said "these threats will not deter us from raising our voice. We will raise issues which concern people". MLA Arjun Chautala said, "We cannot allow this state to become a gangster state. What is the law and order situation today, everyone knows. We will raise our voice for our people, we cannot sit at home. We will keep raising law and order and other issues." In July 2023, Haryana Police had registered a case against an unidentified person for allegedly making a threat call to Abhay Chautala. Abhay Chautala, younger son of former Haryana chief minister late Om Prakash Chautala, was then undertaking "Parivartan Padyatra" in the state.
