A BJP delegation, led by Punjab unit chief Sunil Jakhar, met with Governor Gulab Chand Kataria to request a CBI investigation into the alleged suicide of Divisional Magistrate Gagandeep Singh Randhawa. Jakhar highlighted concerns about a fair investigation due to government officials facing allegations. The party emphasized the need for a CBI probe to ensure justice for the deceased’s family and the people of Punjab.
Jakhar criticized Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann for campaigning in Gujarat instead of addressing the issue, citing a lack of government sensitivity. He questioned the involvement of senior officials like the Chief Secretary and the DGP in political activities, raising doubts about the administration’s commitment to justice. The BJP delegation’s primary focus was on seeking a CBI inquiry to uphold transparency and accountability in the case.
The BJP’s stance underscores the importance of the Opposition’s role in ensuring democratic principles in Punjab. Jakhar expressed concerns about the Congress party’s alignment with the ruling government, highlighting instances where demands for a CBI investigation were allegedly influenced by political pressures. The BJP remains steadfast in its pursuit of justice, urging elected representatives to support their call for a CBI probe and vowing to persist until justice prevails.
