Moga/amritsar, October 1

State Congress and AAP leaders today accused the state government of creating panic and hastily carrying out an evacuation in border villages.

Leader of the Opposition Charanjit Singh Channi said in Moga that there was a need to instill confidence among people rather than spreading fear. PPCC chief Capt Amarinder Singh said the villagers had been subjected to harassment by the government order.

Congress MLAs Sukhjinder Singh Randhawa, Parminder Singh Pinki and Rana Gurmeet Singh Sodhi called upon the government to make adequate arrangements in the relief camps.

AAP state convener Gurpreet Singh accused the state government of not making adequate arrangements for the displaced people. He said in Amritsar that the “undue” tension in the districts bordering Pakistan could be an attempt by the SAD-BJP government to get the Assembly poll postponed. Gurpreet visited the border village of Dhanoa Kalan and adjoining areas in Attari constituency.

The state BJP accused AAP of drawing political mileage from the situation. State party secretary Vineet Joshi said the AAP leaders' accusations that the Centre and the Punjab Government were misleading the people were baseless.
