Chandigarh, Dec 17 (Reporter) Senior Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) leader Bikram Singh Majithia on Tuesday said that Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann should own moral responsibility for the worsening law and order situation in the state and resign as Home Minister immediately. He also expressed shock at the manner in which the Amritsar police and its Commissioner Gurpreet Singh Bhullar was engaged in a cover up operation and denying that the string of grenade attacks on police stations in Amritsar actually took place. Speaking about the latest incident at Islamabad police station when a loud explosion damaged window panes of neighbouring houses, Majithia said “the Amritsar Police was quick to deny the incident and even cleaned up the police station to show nothing had happened. However, simultaneously the police were at work and threatening people who asserted that they had heard a grenade attack for which responsibility has also been now taken”. Stating that the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) government could not take such attacks on police stations lightly, he said “earlier when the Majitha police station was the subject of a grenade blast the police claimed that a tyre had burst. Now again the same tactic is being employed in the case of the attack on the Islamabad police station”. The Senior SAD leader said all these attacks were a clear indication of an intelligence failure and that the Chief Minister should own moral responsibility for the same. “This is also the result of weakening state institutions by giving encouragement to gangsters like Lawrence Bishnoi”. Asking the AAP government not to try to deny such incidents, Majithia said “an effort should instead be made to isolate and arrest the Anti-National elements behind the blasts”. He also urged the people to maintain peace and be steadfast in their resolve to defeat those trying to spoil communal harmony...////...
