Warring raises concern over killings in Punjab

“While the AAP government is counting its days, we are counting our dead,” Warring said in a statement while referring to the daily killings in Punjab by criminals and gangsters.

He said just two days ago, the son of a trader was shot dead in Ferozepur and the next day, another trader was killed in Amritsar for ransom.

“Nobody is safe in Punjab today,” he noted, while pointing out how easily and effortlessly criminals were killing people with no fear of law. “Sadly, killings have been normalized in Punjab under the AAP regime,” he said.

Referring to the life threats issued to senior party leader and MP Sukhjinder Singh Ranhawa, Sidhu Moosewala’s father Balkaur Singh and a famous singer, the PCC president said while the gangsters were getting bold and audacious with every passing day, the government appeared to have gone into hiding and completely abdicated its authority.

Warring referred to an ultimatum issued to the gangsters by the AAP leaders during the Tarn Taran by-election to leave the state within one week or face elimination. “We don’t know whether the gangsters have taken the AAP ultimatum seriously, but what we know is that they are continuously intimidating people for ransom and those who refuse to pay, are made to pay with their lives,” he said in a scathing attack on the AAP government over its failure to protect the life of people in the state.
