Punjab Minister Protests Congress Leader Bajwa's Remarks, Security Concerns Raised

Punjab minister Harbhajan Singh led a protest against Congress leader Partap Singh Bajwa over remarks perceived as mocking Singh's background and the Dalit community. Bajwa, who denied any casteist intent, faced criticism from AAP leaders who demanded an apology. The protest, held outside the Punjab Assembly ahead of the budget session, included a wedding band symbolizing Singh's father's profession. Bajwa raised concerns about security breaches during the protest and requested a gubernatorial inquiry. The Punjab State Scheduled Castes Commission also sought Bajwa's explanation.
