YAD protesting at Moga against Rahul Gandhi
Chandigarh, January 19: The Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) today said the Punjab Congress had fallen back on holding a sham in-house hunger strike after the people of the State resolutely rejected PCC President Partap Singh Bajwa’s decision to take support of a dreaded drug lord to attack the SAD-BJP government. Terming the hunger strike as a “photo opportunity†to keep himself in the news, SAD spokesman Dr Daljit Singh Cheema and general secretary Sharanjit Singh Dhillon said it was ironic that Punjab Congress President Partap Bajwa who had launched an agitation programme with much fanfare recently, had fallen back on an in house hunger strike in the comfort of the party office here in the union territory. “ Partap Bajwa has seen the fate of the ‘chakka jam’ programme held recently which saw uninterrupted movement of traffic across the State even as few henchmen of the PCC chief went in for symbolic protests to please their bossâ€, the SAD leaders said. They said this was the main reason why the PCC chief had diluted his agitation programme and had decided to release well calibrated photographs for dispatch to the party high command to show that an agitation was in progress when nothing existed on the ground. The leaders said the ‘hunger strike’ was also aimed at shifting focus away from the on-going factional fight in the Punjab Congress. Dr Cheema and Dhillon said rather than holding sham protests which had no meaning, the PCC chief should come clean on his past misdeeds which had been revealed in detail in a letter written by former chief minister Capt Amarinder Singh to the high command as well as an investigation done by a reputed news magazine. “Besides this there are reports from central agencies about Bajwa’s past record which includes being hand in glove with the drug mafia as well as terrorists and indulging in activities which are the hallmark of a petty criminal – fake currency and call girl racketeeringâ€. The leaders said it was a matter of fact that all steps taken by the PCC chief recently to create an atmosphere of divisiveness and destruction had failed. “This happened because Mr Bajwa has been exposed for who he is and the people of the State do not want to take Punjab back into an era when drug smugglers and terrorists used politicians like Bajwa for their ulterior endsâ€. They said it was heartening that the rank and file of the Punjab Congress had also understood the PCC President’s game and was refusing to support him in his efforts to find an escape route for drug lord Jagdish Bhola against whom a water tight case had been prepared by the Patiala Police. The SAD meanwhile reiterated its decision to take the case against the drug mafia in Punjab to its logical end. Dr Cheema exhorted the government to go after the collaborators of the drug lords also in order to rid drugs from civil society.
