“Don’t shoot the messenger, Mann Sahab. Leader of Opposition Partap Singh Bajwa is a responsible leader holding a constitutional position. If he has shared some information, you should use your police and intelligence to utilise it and follow it up”, he told the Chief Minister, while observing, “instead, you are trying to intimidate him”. The issue he (Bajwa) has flagged is real, he said, while pointing out, so many grenade attacks have taken place and the AAP government is clueless. “Height of it is that you are now launching a witch-hunt, which is not only unacceptable but highly condemnable”, he told the AAP government.

Besides, he pointed out, another newspaper revealed that some quantity of RDX had been recovered in the Subhanpur area on Kapurthala-Jalandhar road.
