Concerned over repeated incidents of murders, shootings: Punjab BJP

Chandigarh, Oct 26 (SocialNews.XYZ) Bharatiya Janata Party Punjab President, Kewal Singh Dhillon, on Monday expressed concern over the alleged repeated incidents of murders, shootings in the state, criticising the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) government over the deteriorating law and order situation.

He said that incidents of daylight murders and shootings across Punjab have instilled fear among ordinary man.

 

The firing incident in Moga, he added, exposed the reality behind the state government’s claims regarding law and order.

According to a statement issued from the party office in Chandigarh, Dhillon said that 23 police stations in Punjab have witnessed grenade attacks, while serious incidents, including an attack on the police headquarters using a rocket launcher, have also taken place.

The situation has reached a point where police officers are being compelled to issue written instructions to their personnel, advising them against venturing outside in uniform.

Protective nets are being installed outside police stations, and their boundary walls are being heightened. These developments raise serious questions about the state’s security arrangements.

He further said, "While Punjab is grappling with crime and lawlessness, Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann remains occupied with foreign tours. Instead of prioritising the safety and security of the people of Punjab, the Chief Minister appears more concerned about his birthday."

The reported issue of customs duty allegedly being imposed on his belongings upon his return from abroad has also become a subject of discussion.

Dhillon demanded that the AAP government take strict action against criminals, strengthen the police force and ensure the safety of citizens.

He said that the law and order situation in the state has deteriorated to an alarming level. Instead of shirking its responsibilities, the government must take concrete and effective steps to restore public confidence and ensure security across the state.
