Punjab chief minister Bhagwant Mann on Tuesday morning said that the probe was on in the Mohali blast case as several leaders of the opposition condemned the suspected rocket attack on the Punjab Police headquarters a day before in strong reactions. “Police are investigating the blast in Mohali. Whoever tried to spoil the atmosphere of our Punjab will not be spared, ” Bhagwant Mann tweeted in Hindi and Punjabi.
This was the chief minister’s first reaction since the attack was reported on Monday at around 8 pm. He has called for a meeting with top police officials at his residence on Tuesday morning, news agency ANI reported.
AAP chief Arvind Kejriwal too shared Mann’s tweet. “Mohali blast is a cowardly act of those who want to disturb the peace of Punjab. Aam Aadmi Party’s Punjab government will not allow those people’s wishes to be fulfilled. Peace will be maintained under all circumstances with the cooperation of all the people of Punjab and the culprits will be punished severely (sic),” the Delhi chief minister wrote in Hindi, along with the Punjab CM’s post.
