BJP leader, 2 others booked for farmer’s death
Chandigarh, Captain Amarinder Singh has demanded that AAP leader Arvind Kejriwal should make an unequivocal apology to the Indian Army after being thoroughly exposed over his blatant lies on the issue of the surgical strikes against Pakistan.
The Punjab Pradesh Congress Committee (PPCC) president said the Indian Army had completely nailed Kejriwal’s lies by submitting to the Central Government conclusive proof of the strikes carried out in the wake of the Uri terror attack. Media reports also extensively cited the evidence shared by the Army to put all doubts over the matter at rest.
The former Punjab chief minister lambasted Kejriwal for challenging the integrity of the armed forces, who were sacrificing their lives on the borders to protect the citizens of the country.
Captain Amarinder said Kejriwal has lost face in the wake of such overwhelming evidence, which had not only left him embarrassed but was also a major setback for his poll plans in Punjab. In a statement, Captain Amarinder said the AAP leader has been exposed once again over his blatant lies based on unauthenticated information.
Kejriwal has a habit of putting his foot in his mouth, which has often made him the butt of public ridicule. This was only the latest in a spate of such unverified claims made by Kejriwal, said Capt. Amarinder, urging the AAP leader to refrain from dragging such august institutions as the defence forces into his political agenda.
The strikes, undertaken recently by the Indian Army following the terror attack in Uri, have been at the centre of political controversy, with the AAP openly raising doubts about the veracity of the reported action by the Indian Army.
In a video message, Kejriwal had asked Prime Minister Modi to refute Pakistani claims on the surgical strikes. Now that sufficient information on the issue is out in the public domain, why is Kejriwal maintaining a studied silence, asked Captain Amarinder.
