New Delhi, April 1: Political reactions are pouring in following the blast outside the BJP office in Chandigarh. Leaders from various political parties are condemning the incident and raising concerns about security.
Punjab BJP President Sunil Jakhar took to social media platform X, stating that there have been a series of grenade attacks on police stations in Punjab. Recently, a statue of Dr. B.R. Ambedkar was vandalized in Hoshiarpur, and now there has been an attack on the state-level BJP office in Chandigarh. This sequence of events points to attempts to disrupt communal harmony in the state.
He further noted that the government of this border state has failed to prevent these attacks. As a result, the deteriorating law and order situation in Punjab is now affecting Chandigarh as well. However, he asserted that no matter how hard separatist forces try, they will not be able to break Punjab’s unity.
Shiromani Akali Dal General Secretary Bikram Singh Majithia expressed his shock at the news of the explosion outside the BJP office in Chandigarh. He stated that this raises serious questions about law and order. An unverified video circulating on social media allegedly shows a person throwing explosives at the building, which appears to be the Punjab BJP office. Chandigarh SSP Kanwardeep Kaur should confirm the authenticity of this video.
He urged authorities to conduct a swift and thorough investigation and ensure strict action against those responsible.
Punjab Assembly Leader of the Opposition and Congress leader Pratap Singh Bajwa expressed his concern on X regarding the bomb blast outside the BJP office in Chandigarh. Fortunately, there were no injuries reported. He emphasized that this incident is a serious concern and it is now time for both the BJP and the Aam Aadmi Party to ensure that there is no compromise on security in Chandigarh and throughout Punjab. Public safety must be paramount.
