Jalandhar: Alleging that chief minister Parkash Singh Badal and his son Sukhbir Badal, president of SAD were instigating “Political terrorism” in the state because as many as 48 Congress workers were murdered in the state, former chief minister Captain Amarinder Singh on Sunday warned them of dire consequences if they did not stop such “political terrorism”.

Singh was here in the city to attend a function organised by the Hind Samachar Group of newspapers to disburse fund of Rs 2 crore to Bihar chief minister’s relief fund, said there would be blood shed in the Parliamentary election, if SAD did not mend its way to spread “political terrorism” as it did in civic polls.

“The entire plan to terrorise Congress leaders and workers is being executed by Sukhbir and his brother-in-law Bikram Singh Majithia under the patronage of the chief minister, who has virtually given up to the dictates of his ambitious son ever since formation of the SAD-BJP government,” Amarinder alleged.

Alleging politicisation of state force, former CM alleged that that even SHO of the state force was being appointed on the direct intervention of Sukhbir Badal and there was total disorder in the system as junior police officials were even not obeying the orders of their seniors and merely follow the instructions of their political masters.

Reacting to the recent statement of chief minister Parkash Singh Badal in which he said that there would be no impact of global economic recession on the industry of Punjab, Amarinder said that instead of issuing such irresponsible statement, CM should have taken the steps to improve industrialisation of the state, which was a record slow pace.

“During our tenure, we had brought 399 mega industrials projects, but after SAD-BJP’s coming into power, all projects derailed due to faulty policies of the state government”, he added.
