Punjab Assembly Session to Focus on Drug Trade, Law and Order Disputes
Ahead of a six-day Punjab Assembly session, the Opposition, led by Partap Singh Bajwa, is set to challenge the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) government over alleged failures in controlling drug trafficking, law and order, and corruption. Bajwa demanded Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann's resignation following the murder of anti-drug activist Parvinder Singh Jhota, calling for a CBI probe. The AAP government blamed previous administrations and the central government for drug inflows, while also planning measures to support women and seeking the Chief Election Commissioner's resignation.
