Zirakpur, April 28

Covid-19 norms went for a toss as Congress councillors led by Zirakpur Municipal Council president Udayvir Singh Dhillon inaugurated the LED street lighting project here on Wednesday.

The police and MC Council officials remained silent spectators to the violations. Dera Bassi MLA NK Sharma criticised the callous attitude of the Congress leaders and termed the inauguration a publicity stunt.

“Why police did not issue a challan to any Congress leader or worker,” Sharma asked while highlighting the Covid protocol.

“Under the Congress rule, police batons are only for common man,” he said. — TNS
