The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leaders in Punjab have sharply reacted to the claim made by Congress leader and Leader of the Opposition, Pratap Singh Bajwa, regarding the entry of 50 grenades from across the border into Punjab. AAP leaders have accused Bajwa of having connections with Pakistan.
AAP Punjab senior leader and Finance Minister Harpal Singh Cheema stated that Pratap Bajwa occupies a significant constitutional position, and he should refrain from making false statements. Cheema said, “If Bajwa has such information, he should immediately provide full details to the police. If he fails to do so, it will be assumed that he has links with the Pakistani gangsters who are constantly trying to disrupt peace and law and order in Punjab.”
Cheema added that the police have questioned Bajwa regarding his claim. If his statement turns out to be false, strict action will be taken against him as per the law. He also urged the Congress party to take action against Pratap Bajwa and remove him from the position of Leader of the Opposition.
AAP Spokesperson Neel Garg questioned Pratap Bajwa, saying, “If Partap Bajwa already had this information, why did he not inform Punjab Police or central security agencies earlier? Why did he keep such sensitive information hidden for so many days?”
Garg further questioned whether Bajwa’s access to such information raises suspicions of his links with Pakistan or if he is part of this conspiracy. He called on the Congress party’s top leadership, especially Rahul Gandhi and Mallikarjun Kharge, to provide clarification on this matter and urged them to initiate an inquiry into Bajwa’s statements.
AAP Leader Baltej Pannu stated, “If Pratap Bajwa knows about the entry of 50 grenades, he must also know their location. He should disclose where the remaining 32 bombs are hidden and where they are intended to be used.”
Pannu said that it is a grave matter for a senior Congress leader to have such information about Pakistan. He expressed suspicion that Bajwa might have links with old smugglers and gangsters. Pannu questioned, “If Bajwa has no links, then he should explain to Punjab Police how he obtained this information.”
Pannu also urged Bajwa to cooperate fully with the police investigation to locate the remaining bombs. He called on the Congress leadership to take this issue seriously and act accordingly.
