Punjab Congress party leaders on Friday staged dharna at all district headquarters against the vicious tactics of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). Under the leadership of Punjab Pradesh Congress Committee President Amarinder Singh Raja Warring, the party leadership, workers and supporters staged a dharna in Chandigarh.
Saying that the law of the land is equal for all, Warring rued why no action is being taken against the tainted BJP leaders. “Why those, with criminal cases against them, are roaming free? Why no BJP leader gets prosecuted for using derogatory, defamatory and discriminatory words? They too must be brought to justice,” he demanded.
Replying to a media query in the recent judgement against Congress leader Rahul Gandhi, the PPCC chief said that the judgement against him is unsatisfactory but definitely not unexpected. He stated that he was not aware of even a single case in the law of defamation in India where such harsh judgement had been given against the accused.
The High Court’s judgement redoubles our resolve to pursue the matter further, said Warring adding that the Congress Party is committed to fight the battle both legally and politically and give a befitting reply to the Bharatiya Janta Party.
Praising Rahul Gandhi for his stand against the tyrant government and rulers in the Centre, Warring said that he is a fearless letter and will not be intimidated by such pressure tactics and harassment. He is the crusader of truth and will continue to walk on the path of righteousness.
