Punjab Finance Minister Harpal Singh Cheema has accused opposition figures of hypocrisy for defending Bikram Singh Majithia following his arrest on disproportionate assets charges, involving alleged laundering of Rs 540 crore of 'drug money.'
Cheema pointed to past criticisms against Majithia, notably during an era plagued by drug trafficking in Punjab, accusing the opposition of 'double standards' and political opportunism.
Opposition leaders, once vocal critics of Majithia, now defend him, prompting Cheema to question their integrity and demand clarity for Punjab's citizens, who deserve answers about these abrupt changes in stance.
