Parkash Singh Badal won’t cancel protest on drugs issue
- 5 years ago
After drawing flak for its move to protest against the BSF on the drugs issue, Punjab’s ruling Akali Dal Tuesday seemed to have toned down its action, saying that it will now hold three ‘dharnas’ on the India-Pakistan border “to create awareness about drugs as well as focus on the need for greater vigilance”.
The decision was taken Tuesday at a meeting of the Shiromani Akali Dal leadership, chaired by party patron and Chief Minister Parkash Singh Badal, party spokesmen Maheshinder Singh Grewal and Daljit Singh Cheema said here.
The Akali Dal will now hold three “awareness dharnas” near Attari, Hussainiwala and Sadki check points in Amritsar, Ferozepur and Fazilka districts on Jan 5. “The proposed dharna at Gurdaspur has been put off and now merged with the Attari programme,” the spokesmen said.
