"Post A DJ": Punjab Police Order For Chief Minister's Events, Then U-Turn
NDTV
The state police have come under massive criticism over its directive to all deputy commissioners, police commissioners and senior superintendents of police in the state "regarding security arrangements during chief minister's visit".
Play hymns and religious songs on loudspeakers is the Punjab police's new diktat to its officers to ensure the voice of protesters at functions attended by Chief Minister Charanjit Singh Channi don't reach him. How afraid you are @CHARANJITCHANNI ? Trying to silence voice of protesting unions by such tactics shows your fear from them. You are not ready to face them & hear them. All you do is drama of being a sympathizer of all those who are fighting for their rights. Utterly Shameful. pic.twitter.com/VUrJvz2tbz It couldn't be true ! Sacrilegious and a mockery of democracy. pic.twitter.com/f6Z24XZsFJ
The state police have come under massive criticism over its directive to all deputy commissioners, police commissioners and senior superintendents of police in the state "regarding security arrangements during chief minister's visit".
Senior police officers have been directed to 'post a DJ' in areas "where two different organisations are protesting their demands".
"If Gurbani Shabad/religious songs are played, then their voices should not be heard," the letter, shared multiple times on social media, reads.
