Punjan Newsline, Chandigarh-

Punjab Congress president Amarinder Singh Raja Warring, Leader of Opposition in the Punjab Vidhan Sabha Partap Singh Bajwa, AICC general secretary and former Deputy Chief Minister Sukhjinder Singh Randhawa and former minister Pargat Singh in a joint statement warned the Aam Aadmi Party government against the brutal abuse of power out of sheer political vendetta. “This is too much”, they warned.
The Congress leaders also cautioned the officials against doing the illegal and unlawful bidding of the AAP government, which was already on its way out. “Nobody is coming to save you, when you will be held to account for the sins of your omission and commission, so be ware”, the Congress leaders told such officials in categorical and unambiguous terms.
The Congress leaders maintained that demolishing the outer wall of Khaira’s ancestral house in Ramgarh village in Bholath assembly segment was a clear act of political vendetta aimed at silencing him.
“The ruling party and its leaders are miserably mistaken that they can intimidate and arm twist the Congress leaders and stop them from exposing the government’s failures”, they said, while adding, today’s action only reveals the AAP’s desperation and frustration after completely having lost the public support”.
The Congress leaders said that the AAP appears to have taken a leaf from the copybook of the BJP, which has also been using the bulldozers indiscriminately.
“Do not set a wrong precedent”, the Congress leaders warned the AAP while warning it, “your time is up as your countdown has started and our time is coming and you will be held to account for every action”.
The senior Congress leaders also served a categorical ultimatum to the government officials and the police against going extra mile to please and appease their political masters in intimidating the Congress workers and leaders.
“Everything is being noted. Everything is being recorded. Nothing will be forgotten. Nothing will be forgiven”, the leaders warned, while pointing out, “the AAP government is already on the way out”.
