Punjab elections: Sukhbir Singh Badal campaigns in Mohali

MOHALI: Residents of Mohali were fed up with the "unrealistic and false promises" made by AAP and the Congress misrule, said Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) president Sukhbir Singh Badal while campaigning for the party's Mohali candidate Parminder Singh Sohana on Monday.
Referring to a tape in which DGP S Chattopadhyay was talking to a proclaimed offender in the Bhola drug case, Sukhbir demanded registration of a criminal case against him for "taking orders from criminals while functioning as the state police chief."
"During this conversation the PO instructed the DGP regarding transfer and posting of certain police officers, shifting of notorious prisoners from one jail to another and creating an illegal detention centre in Mohali," he said.Lashing out at Punjab chief minister Charanjit Singh Channi, he said it was clear why Channi had "gone out of his way" to appoint Chattopadhyay as the State DGP though he was not eligible to hold this post.
