Chandigarh, November 16
Leader of Opposition Harpal Singh Cheema today accused CM Amarinder Singh of extending political patronage to drug mafia in the state. Demanding his resignation, the AAP leader said the CM's adviser Sandeep Sandhu, OSD Ankit Bansal and Daman Mohi be arrested and handed over to an investigating agency.
Cheema alleged the drug mafia, which the then Badal government had nurtured during its 10-year tenure from 2007 to 2017, was now being allegedly run by the Congress government. "The association of Rano sarpanch and former Youth Akali leader Gurdeep Singh with Sandhu, Bansal and Mohi corroborate the charges," he said. Gurdeep was recently caught with a cache of drugs.
Rubbishing the allegations, Sandhu said the STF formed by Capt Amarinder Singh had arrested the Rano sarpanch. "If the person had political patronage of the government, how could he be arrested by the STF," he said. — TNS
