Gangsters having free run, no one safe in Punjab, says SAD
Chandigarh, August 7
The SAD today condemned the murder of former Student Organisation of India (SOI) president Vicky Middukhera alleging it was the result of a free run being given to gangsters by the Congress government.
State govt in deep slumber
It’s not the first murder. Earlier, many innocents were killed, but the government remained in deep slumber.
The party demanded an independent probe into the killing to unmask the conspiracy. In a statement, former minister Bikram Singh Majithia said the Mohali shooting, close to the state capital, proved no one was safe in Punjab.
“The law and situation has deteriorated to the extent that kidnappings, extortions and shootings have become commonplace. The government has become powerless as gangsters are operating at will.”
Majithia said the SAD had raised the issue of patronage to gangsters in jails. “We exposed how gangsters were treated as VVIPs in jails. Everyone knows the manner in which UP don Mukhtar Ansari was provided shelter in a Punjab jail.”
Youth Akali Dal president Parambans Singh Romana also condemned the killing.
Meanwhile, former MP Prem Singh Chandumajra on Saturday visited the residence of Vicky Middukhera and expressed condolences with the bereaved family. — TNS
