CM Bhagwant Mann.
The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) government, which is taking credit for the security cut as an action on VIP culture, has suffered a major setback. The Punjab and Haryana High Court has stayed the decision to cut security. While ordering the government to restore the security, the HC has asked to review it.
The High Court asked the Punjab Police to take such a decision only after consultation with the Central and state intelligence agencies. The High Court also expressed concern over the security leak. The High Court said that the information being made public puts many in danger. Mischievous elements can take wrong advantage of this.
Singer Sidhu Musewala was murdered the very next day after the Punjab government cut security.
Musewala killed after security cuts
Punjabi singer Sidhu Moosewala was murdered on 29 May. A day before this, the Punjab government had reduced his security. 2 out of 4 commands were withdrawn from them. After this, questions arose on the government that why did they reduce the security of Moosewala?. Even if the security was to be reduced, then why was this information made public.
High Court had reached 45 petition
The Mann government started cutting security even before it came to power. Security was reduced four times before Musewala was killed. In which mostly Congress leaders, religious figures, retired and serving police officers and other celebrities were there. Time and again information about it was made public. Which the Aam Aadmi Party kept telling action on VIP culture. Against this, 45 petitions had reached the High Court.
