Asking the Centre to take a tough stance against Pakistan sponsored terrorism, Punjab Chief Minister Amarinder Singh on Thursday reiterated that his government will punish those responsible for the 2015 sacrilege incidents.
Speaking at a conclave here on the completion of his government’s three years in office, Singh said his focus was on tackling the menace of drugs, crime and political killings — all of which were rampant under the SAD-BJP rule.
“If the Akalis think we are sitting quietly and won’t take action against those behind the sacrilege incidents and other serious issues, they are sadly mistaken,” Singh said, adding that he will not engage in a war of words with the opposition as he was focused on issues related to the state’s welfare.
