AAP condemns attack on RSS leader, Demands probe by HC judge

Chandigarh: Condemning the attack on senior leader of Rashtriya Swayamsewak Sangh (RSS) Jagdish Gagneja, who was shot at in Jalandhar on Saturday night, Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) today demanded probe by the sitting judge of High Court in the fierce attack on Gagneja.

In a joint statement today AAP’s Central Spokesman Sanjay Singh and Chairman of Campaign Committee and Sangrur MP Bhagwant Mann said that “by the attack on RSS leader, law & order situation in Punjab is exposed”. He maintained that the people of the state were allegedly “living under threat as the police have failed to provide them any sense of security”.

“Although, we may have ideological differences with RSS but such types of attacks on any person is highly condemnable”, AAP leaders.

“There is a dire need of impartial probe by the sitting judge of High Court, as Special Investigation Team (SIT) constituted to probe the attack is expected to meet the same fate, which was met by earlier SITs to probe important cases like beadbi of Guru Granth Sahib at Bargari”, Sanjay Singh said.
