CHANDIGARH: Chief minister Capt Amarinder Singh on Wednesday accused the Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) of “shedding crocodile tears” over the state-wide desecration of religious texts in 2015, making it clear that his government would take the matter to its logical conclusion.
Reacting to the SAD decision to challenge the CBI closure in Bargari sacrilege cases, the CM lashed out at its president Sukhbir Singh Badal for trying to fool the people by pretending to be concerned about the issue.
Instead of probing the matter himself, Sukhbir, who was then the deputy chief minister and home minister of the state, had been responsible for sending the first three cases related to the Bargari sacrilege to the CBI, said the CM. “Now that the CBI has completed its probe and filed a closure report, Sukhbir is getting the jitters,” he claimed.
The CM asked Sukhbir not to forget the simple fact that even now, when the CBI has filed the closure report which he wants to challenge, it is the NDA government in power at the Centre, with his SAD a part of it. “It is time to stop trying to fool the people,” he said.
