Jalandhar: Punjab Pradesh Congress Committee (PPCC) president Capt Amarinder Singh visited the family of slain Brigadier Jagdish Gagneja (retd) to pay condolences in Jalandhar on Sunday.
Sharing the grief with the bereaved family, Capt said that it is a great loss as Brig Gagneja was not only a noble soul but an outstanding and a brave soldier who had fought many battles for the country including Bangladesh war.
Later talking to media, Capt Amarinder said that there was total collapse of law and order in the state and Chief Minister Parkash Singh Badal must own responsibility. “Brig Gagneja’s killing was a well planned and targeted murder. Even after a month and half, culprits have not been identified, let alone arrested and brought to the book”, he said.
“We have political and ideological differences with Akalis, the BJP and the RSS and we fight them ideologically and democratically. But, killing someone just because you don’t agree with his views is absolutely unacceptable and must be condemned by one and all”, he said.
