Bhagwant Mann seeks inquiry by HC judge
Amritsar/Bathinda, August 2
Demanding a probe by a sitting High Court judge or the CBI, AAP state president and MP Bhagwant Mann today said the police-politician nexus was responsible for deaths due to spurious liquor trade in the state.
Mann, who visited the victims’ kin at Pandori Gola, Bhullar, Kaka Kandiala and Mucchal villages, alleged that the government functionaries had been hiding the illicit liquor death toll in the garb of Covid.
Meanwhile, AAP members staged a protest and raised slogans against the government in Bathinda. The protesters gathered near Fire Brigade Chowk in the afternoon and sought justice for the aggrieved families. — TNS
