Chandigarh, January 6

The state BJP leaders on Thursday urged Punjab Governor Banwarilal Purohit that state Home Minister Sukhjinder Randhawa and DGP Sidharth Chattopadyay be sacked immediately in view of the security breach during PM Narendra Modi’s Punjab visit on Wednesday.

After meeting the governor, while talking to journalists outside the Punjab Raj Bhawan, BJP state president Ashwani Sharma called the stalling of the PM’s cavalcade a conspiracy and alleged that CM Charanjit Singh Channi is the main conspirator in this. 

He said they rejected any probe committee formed by the state government. 

Sharma said neither the CM nor the deputy CMs turned up to receive the Prime Minister at Bathinda.   

He said the Congress was unhappy with the massive response to the rally.

Sharma said that in a press conference on Thursday afternoon, they would expose as to how the government sent its own people to sabotage the rally.
