Resolution demanding rollback of Centre’s BSF order passed at all-party meet in Punjab

Punjab Chief Minister Charanjit Singh Channi asserted that it was matter related to the state and that law and order is a state subject. 

New Delhi: In an all party-meet held in Punjab on Monday (October 25), the leaders passed a resolution against the Centre’s order to extend the jurisdiction of the Border Security Force (BSF) in the state.

Punjab Chief Minister Charanjit Singh Channi asserted that it was a matter related to the state and that law and order is a state subject. He called the order a “raid on our rights in the federal structure”.

“All parties unanimously passed a resolution that this notification be rolled back. If the government doesn't do it, parties decided that a session of Vidhan Sabha be called over this,” said Channi.
