Aam Aadmi Party leaders protest, burn effigies of Parkash Singh Badal over Moga bus case

Moga, May 2: AAP activists today took out a march and burnt effigies of Punjab Chief Minister Badal protesting against the death of a teenage girl who was molested and thrown off a moving bus belonging to his family. AAP leader Jasraj Jassi, who contested the last Lok Sabha elections from Bathinda against Union Minister and ruling SAD leader Harsimrat Badal, led the protest march along with Moga District AAP Convener Ajay Sharma. About 150 AAP activists were present in the march and burnt effigies of the ministers around the Civil Hospital where the mother of the deceased girl is undergoing treatment, followed by a dharna. The protesters demanded registration of a case against the owners of bus, Orbit Aviation, in which the alleged molestation incident took place. Meanwhile, local MLA Joginder Pal Jain faced criticism from the protesters last night when he stated that “cases are not registered like this.”
