Chandigarh, March 25
Aam Aadmi Party (AAP), clarifying its stand on the events of the last week, said that to forward their propaganda the opposition parties are trying to mislead the people of Punjab by spreading rumors. Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann has already given clear orders that no legal action will be taken against any innocent person.
Addressing a press conference at the party office in Chandigarh on Saturday, AAP Punjab Chief Spokesperson Malwinder Singh Kang said that the person who had no direct or indirect role in this Amritpal episode, those people who have done nothing illegal to broke the country or disturbed the peace of Punjab, they will not be harassed. No legal action will be taken against them. But at the same time, he made it clear that, those who are doing anti-Punjab, anti-national activities, who tried to set fire to the communal harmony of Punjab, tried to create communal tension, they will not be spared.
Kang said that when we look at the history, whenever such incidents have happened in Punjab, innocent people have been harmed too. But under the leadership of Mann government, no shots were fired in this incident, no civilians were harmed. In future too no harm will be done to any innocent person. Even if anyone was detained or questioned, its sole purpose was only to investigate.
Kang said that there is no need to fear or panic, because the Mann government is sincerely fulfilling its responsibility towards every Punjabi who believes in the progress of Punjab, the brotherhood of Punjab and the integrity of the country.
He reiterated that the priority of the people of Punjab and the Punjab government is to provide employment to Punjabis, revive agriculture, eliminate corruption, save the industrial sector of Punjab and maintain communal harmony. He said that our purpose is to save the youth and farmers of Punjab, to prevent the youth from going on the wrong path and to take Punjab forward towards development by following the path of ‘Sarbat da bhala’.
