Punjab DGP responsible for PM security lapse: Ferozepur Cong MLA Pinky.
Ferozepur City Congress MLA Parminder Singh Pinky on Thursday said state police chief Siddharth Chattopadhyaya was directly responsible for Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s security breach during his visit to the district on Wednesday
Shimla: On the issue of security breach during the movement of Prime Minister Narendra Modi in
on Wednesday, politics within
has intensified in Himachal Pradesh as the MLAs belonging to rival factions have drawn daggers against each other.
Congress MLA Vikramaditya Singh, son of former chief minister late Virbhadra Singh, has demanded that the Punjab government should probe the incident and fix the responsibility of officials responsible for lapses. But
of Congress,
has indirectly attacked him by saying that some Congress leaders start questioning the party leadership without applying their mind.
Vikramaditya had posted in the social media about the incident by saying that although commenting on the Punjab government is outside his purview, but the developments that have happened on Wednesday are worrying. He said SPG takes care of the inner security circle of the Prime Minister and in whichever state or country he goes, the outer security circle is given by the security agencies of that state and country. He also questioned the argument being given that the Prime Minister had to reach at the venue of programme by helicopter. He said Punjab being a Congress-ruled state, the administration there should have taken more care that there should not be any such lapse in the programme of the Prime Minister so that no one can point a finger. He said now as there is a mistake, action should be taken. “There is no need to look at this development from a political point of view,” he added.
In an indirect attack on Vikramditya, Raizada in his social media page posted that today Congress leaders are raising questions on their party and leadership without applying their mind while BJP leaders are abusing Punjab chief minister and Congress president
, Rahul Gandhi and Priyanka Gandhi Vadra.
He said Congress workers are fighting the battle of Congress leaders and under such circumstances if one cannot raise his voice against the wrong doings of BJP and cannot stand with party workers, then such leader at least should keep quiet.
