Punjab Newsline, Chandigarh, April 13-
AAP leaders on Friday criticized LoP Partap Singh Bajwa for his irresponsible and fear-inducing statement about the alleged presence of 50 grenades in Punjab, of which 18 were purportedly used, and 32 remain. Senior AAP leader Deepak Bali strongly condemned Bajwa’s remarks, calling them a deliberate attempt to create panic among the public and undermine the peace and stability of Punjab.
Deepak Bali questioned the intent behind Bajwa's statement, emphasizing that a true leader genuinely concerned about Punjab's well-being would have acted responsibly. "If Bajwa was sincerely worried about Punjab’s safety, he should have immediately informed the police, intelligence agencies, or the DGP. Instead, he chose to make an alarming statement in the media, which only serves to spread fear and uncertainty," Bali said.
Bali further criticized Bajwa for prioritizing his political agenda over Punjab’s peace. "Bajwa’s remarks clearly show that he is more interested in grabbing media attention than in ensuring the safety of Punjab’s citizens. This is nothing more than a political stunt aimed at creating unnecessary panic and garnering publicity," he added.
