Rajasthan Chief Minister Vasundhara Raje, who has been in the eye of a storm due to her government's inaction over the cases of lynching in the state, has claimed that such incidents happen all over the world, and to cite just Rajasthan's example was wrong.

In an interview to TV channel CNN-News18, Raje said the frustration due to lack of jobs forces people to take the law into their own hands. Dismissing the problem of law and order in the state, she said: "If such an incident happens at 12 in the night in some remote part of the state, I would have to be God Lord to know where and what was happening."
