Chandigarh, January 30
Reacting to the BJP’s victory in the Chandigarh Mayoral elections, Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Singh Mann on Tuesday said that the Presiding officer must be booked under sedition for deceiving the constitution of the country. He said that the presiding officer had deliberately counted the votes in the absence of polling agents just to ensure the win of the BJP candidate. Bhagwant Singh Mann said that this is unprecedentedly unfortunate as democratic has once again muzzled for the sake of the saffron party.
Interacting with the media persons here at local Punjab Bhawan, the Chief Minister said that this moment will be remembered as a black day in the history of our democracy. The Chief Minister said that if the counting of 36 votes can’t be conducted in a free and fair manner then how the polls and counting of votes for the entire country will take place impartially.
