Sunam: Shiromani Akali Dal President and former Deputy Chief Minister of Punjab Sukhbir Singh Badal was talking to journalists on Monday after expressing condolences to the families of the deceased and the deaths due to drinking poisonous liquor in Tibbi. Ravidaspura said that state Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann has no sympathy for the victims' families. He said that the Chief Minister did not consider it appropriate to share his grief with the families of about a dozen people who died in the tragic accident in his own area, Sunam. He said that when people and opposition parties started raising questions on Gurjars, the Chief Minister got angry.
He said that when Gujran came to the village, the administration did not allow the victims' families to meet them but instead made people of one family meet them. Expressing sympathy with the families of those who died after allegedly drinking poisonous liquor, Akali Dal president Sukhbir Singh Badal said Aam Aadmi Party MLA and cabinet minister Aman Arora does not have the right to become a minister because of his reputation. Said which liquor he had purchased from government contract and drank? A minister who makes such irresponsible statements has no right to remain a minister. He said that the government is responsible for any illegal activity inside the state. He said that a case should be registered against the Excise Department and the police station house officer responsible for twenty deaths due to drinking poisonous liquor in the district and they should be arrested.
He said that the special investigation team of the police formed by the government to investigate the poisonous liquor case is not acceptable to the Akali Dal and a judicial inquiry should be conducted into the said very serious case. He said that if the government does not provide Rs 20 lakh compensation to the victims' families and a job to one family member by March 28, then Shiromani Akali will protest in front of the office of Deputy Commissioner Sangrur. On this occasion, former Finance Minister Parminder Singh Dhindsa, Bhai Gobind Singh Longowal, Vinarjit Singh Goldy, Rajinder Deepa, Amanbir Singh Cherry, Baldev Singh Mann, Prakash Chand Garg, Iqbal Singh Jhundan, Pritpal Singh Handa, Gurcharan Singh Dhaliwal, Maninder Singh Lakhmirwala, Gaganjit Singh Barnala, Sunita Sharma, Teja Singh Kamalpur, Tejinder Singh Sanghredi and other leaders were present.
