Chandigarh: Congress Legislature Party leader Charanjit Singh Channi on Tuesday said that the so called campaign of Punjab government against drugs is a mere eyewash as police nabbed mainly drug addicts rather than taking action against drug smugglers. Channi highlighted that drug menace has spread its wings under patronage of powerfull in present government. CLP also took strong exception of misleading campaign launched by state government over drug issues on radio channels. He further, asked Deputy Chief Minister to go through his own party’s manifesto in which serious concerns were raised on drug problem and a promise was made to open more de-addiction centres.
Channi quipped that either Deputy CM should admit that the manifesto was written without the knowledge of party leadership or that his party and government has changed its position on this raging issue.
Channi asked Deputy CM to read newspaper reports regarding distribution of drugs even during elections of general house of Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee.
