Amritsar, June 10
Advocate-General of Punjab H.S. Mattewal said yesterday that Chief Minister Parkash Singh Badal had given instructions to all legal agencies and the police to conduct a preliminary inquiry before registering cases against public servants so that it did not smack of vendetta or mala fide intention.
Mattewal said this while being felicitated by the Amritsar Bar Association. He asserted that the relations between the Bar and the Bench should be cordial and the rule of law should prevail.
Information minister Vikramjit Singh Majithia, Rajya Sabha MP Rajminder Singh Majitha and the administration’s top brass were present on the occasion.
