Chandigarh : Punjab Local Bodies Minister Navjot Singh Sidhu on Monday questioned the Centre on the air strikes in Pakistan asking it not to politicse them.
Turning to Twitter, the former cricketer asked the government not to politicise the army as it is as sacred as the state.
Sidhu was referring to the statement by SS Ahluwalia that said the strikes were meant to send out a message and not to kill.
His tweet read: “300 terrorist dead, Yes or No? What was the purpose then? Were you uprooting terrorist or trees? Was it an election gimmick? Deceit possesses our land in guise of fighting a foreign enemy. Stop politicising the army, it is as sacred as the state.”
