Punjab Newsline, Chandigarh, April 8-
Cabinet Minister Dr. Balbir Singh condemned the derogatory remarks made by Khalistan supporter Gurpatwant Pannun about the Constitution's architect, Dr. Bhimrao Ambedkar. He said that anti-Punjab forces like Pannun cannot tolerate the state's progress and are trying to disturb Punjab's peace and harmony. However, the AAP government will not let their plans succeed.
Dr. Balbir emphasized that Babasaheb Ambedkar does not belong to any one caste or religion; He belongs to the entire nation, and his birth anniversary is celebrated across India. He stated that this comment was made solely to incite the people of Punjab.
He added that only the Aam Aadmi Party has given due respect to Babasaheb. After the formation of the AAP government, pictures of Babasaheb Ambedkar and Shaheed Bhagat Singh were placed in all government offices in Punjab. Our government is committed to fulfilling their dreams.
He warned the people that individuals like Gurpatwant Pannun are enemies of society and are loyal to no one. Therefore, his words should not be taken seriously. He challenged Pannun, saying, "If you have the courage, come to Punjab and say these things."
