Baba Bakala : Punjab Congress leaders today declared a war on drugs at a rally here.
In one voice, they held Revenue Minister Bikram Singh Majithia responsible for spreading the scourge of drugs in the state and destroying an entire generation. For which, they said, he deserved to be sent to jail.
The sentiment was summed up best by PPCC chief Capt Amarinder when he said, “I want to see the sparkling smile back on every Punjabi’s face. One generation is already lost. We have to save the next generation.” He promised that he would finish the problem of drugs within four weeks. The former CM said that not only had the Badals and Majithia pushed the state into drugs, they have also destroyed it economically, pointing to Rs 1.25 lakh crore debt that the state owes.
He said the Badals had accumulated personal wealth. Through hotels, transport, cable, sand mining, liquor trade and other profit-making ventures, they have grabbed everything.
