New Delhi: Delhi Minister Manjinder Singh Sirsa on Sunday in a scathing attack on the Aam Aadmi Party government, accusing it of neglecting the security of common people in Punjab.
Speaking with the media Sisra criticised the deployment of Punjab Police for AAP national convener Arvind Kejriwal’s security after a grenade attack on Thakurdwara Temple in Amritsar, which damaged the temple’s wall but fortunately caused no injuries.
Sirsa slammed the state government for prioritising the security of “special people” like former Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal over the common people.
He claimed that thousands of policemen were deployed for Kejriwal’s security during his tour of Punjab, with around 200 vehicles accompanying him.
“This is very sad… Punjab police were deployed for Arvind Kejriwal’s security; about 200 vehicles were travelling with Arvind Kejriwal. Punjab police, which gives security to common people, has been deployed for the security of special people. Arvind Kejriwal, who calls himself a common man, has become so special that thousands of policemen are travelling with him…The environment in Punjab is not safe anymore…,” said Sirsa.
The grenade attack on Thakurdwara Temple occurred on Friday night, with CCTV footage showing two masked men on a motorcycle lobbing the grenade at the temple.
Amritsar Commissioner GPS Bhullar suspects the involvement of Pakistan’s ISI in the blast, stating that they lure youth into creating disturbances in Punjab.
