Congress stages statewide protest against arrest of Tanda party worker over allegations of ‘disrespecting’ broom
In defiance, party workers organize special protests to ‘disassemble’ brooms
Chandigarh 6 June ( Ranjeet Singh Dhaliwal ) : Congress workers across Punjab today staged protests against the arrest of a party worker, Arshdeep Singh, in Tanda in Hoshiarpur district for alleged “disrespect” to Aam Aadmi Party’s symbol “broom”. As a mark of protest, and in defiance of the government action against their colleague, the party workers across the state, disassembled “brooms” everywhere. Earlier during the day, Punjab Congress president Amarinder Singh Raja Warring strongly condemned the “dictatorial” and “authoritarian” action of the Punjab Police in arresting a Congress worker for a mere symbolic act of resistance.
He said, such action against a Congress worker just because he had disassembled a broom, shows how frustrated and insecure the AAP government has become in Punjab. Warring said, while the AAP had not taken any time in arresting Arshdeep, for what it felt disrespect to its party symbol, it had shown complete paralysis when it came to taking action against the sacrilege of holy Guru Granth Sahib.He reminded the AAP and its leaders that they had promised to do justice in the case of sacrilege to Guru Granth Sahib within 24 hours and now they were in power for more than four years and still no action had been taken. The PCC president thanked the Congress workers who staged protests across the state and expressed solidarity with Arshdeep. He said the AAP’s hyper-reaction in ordering the arrest of Arshdeep for a routine protest reflected the level of insecurity it was suffering from.
Warring asserted that the “disassembling” of the broom was just a beginning and it has already started haunting the AAP leaders. “Today people have started disassembling the broom only, which you take as disrespect, what will you do when they will completely through and kick you out of Punjab in the elections?” he asked the AAP leaders while telling them that their countdown had begun and no authoritarian or dictatorial action against the opposition can stop that.
