New Delhi, May 31 (IANS) The Youth Congress on Tuesday took out a peace march to pay tribute to Congress leader and Punjabi singer Sidhu Moosewala.
Youth Congress national president Srinivas BV said that within a span of a few months, the AAP government has shown Punjab everything which was unimaginable.
"People working for fake image and PR have thrown the state into the fire of anarchy, violence and hatred. Before the elections, tall claims were being made regarding the security of Punjab and after the formation of the government, all the claims and promises have been forgotten," he said.
Questioning the Punjab government, he further said the state has come under the grip of violence and anarchy due to the carelessness of the government.
"Those who were taking the responsibility of security of each and every person of Punjab before coming to the government, are not keeping their eyes on Sidhu Moosewala's death today.
"AAP is solely responsible for pushing Punjab into the darkness of anarchy," he said.
The family members of the farmers, mowed down by a car belonging to Mishra, in Lakhimpur Kheri had moved the top court challenging bail granted to him. He is the son of Union Minister and BJP MP Ajay Kumar Mishra. The victims' families have claimed that the state has not filed an appeal opposing bail granted to Mishra.
In recognition of the best performance of Divisional Commissioners, DCs, SSPs, SDMs and other field officials, Mann also announced such officers or officials will be honoured with the 'Best Performing Award' to further motivate them to serve the people with missionary zeal.
Cheema said the target to increase the sugarcane yield by at least 100 quintals per acre in the next two years has been set, which would further increase the income per acre around Rs 36,000.
While Congress leaders restrained from commenting on the meeting, sources close to Bittu said that there was nothing much in the meeting which was a courtesy call. However, recent instances of Congress leaders leaving the party have triggered speculation of another Congressman desetring the party.
The BJP-ruled Haryana will convene a day-long special session of the Vidhan Sabha on Tuesday. A cabinet meeting was held on Sunday under the chairmanship of Haryana Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar, who has condemned AAP moving a resolution in the Assembly to transfer Chandigarh to Punjab.
Talking to reporters on Thursday, Gursevwak Singh, the elder brother of Gurwinder Singh, who was one of the four farmers who died, said: "The case should be transferred to Delhi. We all know that the proceedings are being influenced here. No action was taken against the union minister despite his video threatening farmers having gone viral.
