Arvind Kejriwal said that the BJP questioned Punjab’s law and order after the incident but ignored the crime situation in Delhi.
Former Delhi chief minister and Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) national convenor Arvind Kejriwal on Wednesday claimed that a major conspiracy is being plotted to defame Punjab and its people.
His remarks came a day after the assassination attempt on Shiromani Akali Dal leader and former Punjab deputy chief minister Sukhbir Badal.
“Today, a major incident was narrowly avoided in Punjab. An attempt was made to shoot former chief minister Sukhbir Singh Badal. Still, thanks to the quick action of the Punjab Police, a tragedy was prevented,” said Arvind Kejriwal in the Delhi assembly.
Arvind Kejriwal informed the house, ‘Sukhbir Singh Badal is safe and condemned the incident’.One thing is clear: a big conspiracy is being hatched to defame Punjab and Punjabis, powerful forces are behind this; Punjab Police averted the incident and gave an example to the whole world of how law and order should be maintained,” Kejriwal added.
