Patiala Violence: Congress leader Alka Lamba alleged that with the Aam Aadmi Party now in the government of a full state, the chief minister of Delhi was using the police against his political opponents.
Attacking the ruling AAP over the clashes in Patiala, the Congress on Sunday said it cannot evade responsibility for the "crumbling" law-and-order situation in Punjab and asked why its national convener Arvind Kejriwal was "shying away" from appealing for peace.
Congress leader Alka Lamba alleged that with the Aam Aadmi Party now in the government of a full state, the chief minister of Delhi was using the police against his political opponents.
Ms Lamba, who had been summoned over a case of "inflammatory statements" against Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, appeared before the Punjab police in Rupnagar on Wednesday.
Attacking the AAP, she recalled that Rahul Gandhi had appealed to the people of Punjab during assembly elections to cast their vote bearing in mind that Punjab is a sensitive border state.
