Chandigarh : Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) on Sunday came down heavily on Parkash Singh Badal led Punjab government for misusing the official machinery especially the punjab police for suppressing its democratic right to protest against the Rs. 12000 crore food scam in Chandigarh on Monday, May 16.
Addressing a press conference here AAP National Spokesman and in charge Punjab party affairs, Sanjay Singh said the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has unearthed the biggest food scam of the country accusing the Badal government of either siphoning off Rs. 12,000 crore or the food grains worth the same amount from the Punjab godowns.
” Chief Minister Badal is using all coercive ways and means at his command to ensure AAP doesn’t hold a massive protest demonstration and surround his official residence at Chandigarh on Monday to expose his misdeeds”.
Let Badal use all his might but he can not browbeat the Aam Aadmi Party and scare its volunteers, workers and sympathisers by adopting such cheap arm twisting tactics, said Sanjay Singh who was flanked by Sangrur MP, Bhagwant Mann, Punjab Convener, Sucha Singh Chhotepur, Legal cell head, Himmat Singh Shergill, senior leader, Aman Arora, Youth wing president, Harjot Singh Bains and Jasbir Singh Sekhon. Sanjay Singh said the RBI had feared that the food scam in Punjab if investigated by an independent agency could go beyond even Rs. 25,000 crore. ” Where has the money or the food grains from Punjab godowns vanished. Has the money gone into the pockets of Badals. Let there be a probe by a special investigative team (SIT) monitored by a sitting supreme court judge”, he added.Sanjay Singh revealed that Badal has unleashed reign of terror through Punjab police officials all across Punjab on the volunteers and workers of AAP to create a fear psychosis among them that in case they attended AAP’s protest demonstration in Chandigarh on Monday they all would be booked in false criminal cases.He said many transport owners have already refused to provide bus service to AAP after they received threats from the government officials.
