AAP creating administrative instability in Punjab: State Congress chief Amarinder Singh Raja Warring

CHANDIGARH: Punjab Congress president Amarinder Singh Raja Warring on Tuesday lashed out at the Aam Aadmi Party government in the state for creating an atmosphere of “administrative uncertainty and instability”.

Reacting to the “resignation” of the Advocate General Anmol Rattan Sidhu, Warring said, it does not augur well for the state that persons holding such senior positions are replaced so frequently. “The moment an official starts feeling settled, this government ensures that he is unsettled at that moment only”, he remarked.

“Earlier the DGP and the Chief Secretary were given an unceremonious exit for the reasons best known to the government and now the AG has resigned”, he pointed out, while remarking it only shows the inexperience and incompetence of the AAP government which is not letting the officials to settle down.

Warring said, while the appointment of officials was indeed the prerogative of the government, but at the same time administrative stability must not be disturbed, the way it is being disturbed under the AAP regime.

Mann going Channi way: Sunil Jakhar

BJP leader Sunil Jakhar also tweeted, “It seems Bhagwant Mann govt is 'going' - Channi govt way! Striking similarities. Then also, first DGP was removed, then the AG. Same script is being followed now, only characters have changed. Earlier the puppeteer was Harish, now it’s Raghav Chadha. In any case; Punjab suffers.”
