PM’s security breach: Thakur questions role of then Punjab CM Channi | India News – Times of India

NEW DELHI: On the PM Modi’s security breach incident on January 5 this year, I&B minister Anurag Thakur has raised a series of questions about the role of former Punjab CM and Congress leader Charanjit Singh Channi and said it needed to be answered why top functionaries were missing from the spot where the PM’s convoy was stranded.
The I&B minister was reacting after a Supreme Court-appointed committee said the then Ferozepur SSP had “failed to discharge his duty”.
“Why was such a situation allowed to be created? Why were the important people like CM, chief secretary and DGP absent from the place of the incident? Who leaked the route of the PM to the protesters? If it was a sanitised route, how did the protesters reach the spot? Who was the SSP talking to on the call repeatedly? Who was he taking instructions from?” Thakur said.
“The CM gave the excuse that he was Covid positive, but he addressed a presser after a few hours and met people without a mask. Channi said that it was natural. It was not natural but planned. Who was behind this conspiracy?” Thakur said.
Thakur lashed out at Punjab Police for being a “mute spectator” on the flyover where the PM was stranded. “The SPG gave a go-ahead to take the route only after a clearance by the Punjab DGP that the route is safe and sanitised. Even then the CM, chief secretary and DGP were missing. The spot, where the PM’s convoy was stranded, was in the middle of the bridge, only 100m away from protesters and 10 km away from Pakistan. Anything could’ve happened,” he said.
