Chandigarh, December 12, 2012:The Punjab Deputy Chief Minister Sukhbir Singh Badal at the time of launching the 24X7 feedback portal and toll free number here today charged the Congress party for politicising every minor issue in the state as they were devoid of any issue.
Interacting with the media persons, he said earlier the public gave them a strong rebuff on their repeated rants of 40,000 vendetta cases and they could not produce even four. He said that we have to appreciate the fact that the speed and effectiveness with which police had arrested the accused within six hours of crime and exemplary punishment meted out to the erring police officers.

Badal said that law and order situation in the state was better than any state in the country. He said that during last five years they had made record seizure of RDX and Explosives, made pre-emptive arrests of hardcore ultras preventing many tragedies, maintained strict vigil on law and order situation, acted with alacrity on every issue.

Advising Congress leaders to stop the competitive politics to mark their attendance in Congress high command, Badal said SAD-BJP government has acted promptly in every case and not issued “Clean Chits” like him.

He said that he was very satisfied with the recruitment of 20,000 constables in Punjab Police during last six years as Punjab Police has got best talent in the most transparent recruitment process in the state.

On the issue of fake license to Sukhdev Singh Namdhari, Badal said that he has ordered recheck of all arms licenses besides lodging a FIR against Namdhari.
