Dharamsala, May 9

The Bilaspur police, which did not allow former Punjab DGP Sumedh Singh Saini to enter Himachal, posted a message on its official page offering to welcome him after the Covid crisis is over.

Bilaspur SP Dewakar Sharma has posted, “We have great regards for Sumedh Singh Saini Sir. His courage, undaunting bravery, leadership and professionalism during those peak days of turbulent times inspire many, including me. For this, he will remain a role model for many. The nation still remembers his contribution towards Punjab and we hold him in high esteem.”

On May 7, around 4 am, the Bilaspur police turned back Saini from the state border, who along with two others was going to his Karsog property.

The former DGP was not allowed to enter the state, as he did not have the permission to travel during curfew hours from competent authorities.

Later, it came to the fore that the Punjab Police had registered a case on May 6 evening against the former DGP and he might have been trying to go to Himachal to escape arrest.

The case was registered in connection with the disappearance of Balwant Singh Multani in 1991.
