Controversy Erupts Over Blasts in Punjab: AAP Accuses BJP of Poll Strategy

AAP MP Sanjay Singh has leveled serious accusations against the BJP, claiming the party orchestrated blasts in Amritsar and Jalandhar to influence upcoming assembly elections in Punjab. He alleges the motive is to disrupt peace and draws comparisons to post-poll violence in West Bengal.

Singh suggested a direct link between the BJP and ISI, referring to past incidents like the Pathankot attack. He claimed that BJP has a history of collaboration with the ISI, a charge echoed by Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann.

In response, BJP national general secretary Tarun Chugh labeled the accusations as irresponsible. He criticized the AAP government's failure to maintain law and order in Punjab, suggesting that their governance shortcomings are more to blame than any alleged conspiracy.
