Share

According to the Hindustan Times, former Indian Punjab Congress president Navjot Singh Sidhu walked out of Patiala jail after 10 months of rigorous imprisonment in the 1988 road rage case.

As soon as Sidhu walked out of the jail, amid cheers from his supporters who had been waiting outside since noon on Saturday for the Congress leader’s release, he said the BJP is inciting violence in Punjab. “Right now, there is no such thing as democracy.”

A plot is being hatched to impose President’s Rule in Punjab. Minorities are being singled out. “You will become weak if you try to weaken Punjab,” Sidhu said. “Whenever there is a dictatorship in a country, there is a revolution.”

“I was supposed to be released around noon, but they delayed it because they wanted the Congress supporters and the media to leave,” Sidhu explained. “Today, there is no democracy. Democracy is restrained. If Bhagwant Mann is listening, I’d like to inform him that there is a concerted effort to harm Punjab,” Sidhu said. —INP
