Badals, Amarinder patronised kingpins in drugs trade: Punjab CM
The Hindu
Every person involved in the illegal trade will be nailed, says Channi
With the drugs issue taking the centre stage in poll-bound Punjab, Chief Minister Charanjit Singh Channi on Friday accused the Badal family and Captain Amarinder Singh (retired) of having patronised and sheltered kingpins in the illegal trade.
“These elitist leaders patronised the drug mafia by sheltering the kingpin. Now the police have booked Shiromani Akali Dal leader and former Minister Bikram Singh Majithia under the Narcotic Drugs And Psychotropic Substances Act for his misdeeds due to which he is running from pillar to post for evading arrest. Every person involved in the drug trade will be nailed,” the Chief Minister said in Pathankot.
Mr. Channi asked Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) supremo Arvind Kejriwal to first perform in Delhi before promising a moon to people of Punjab.
