‘Ensure report on corrupt cops facilitating rise of gangs in Punjab is tabled in House’: Partap Singh Bajwa to Speaker

“You would kindly recall that during Zero Hour on September 2, 2024, you had expressed profound concern over the apparent laxity in addressing corrupt practices within the police force. Specifically, you highlighted the case of ASI Bohar Singh, posted in your constituency, Kotkapura, who was accused under Section 7 of the Prevention of Corruption Act for allegedly receiving bribes from a known gangster, with the transactions traced to his bank account,” Bajwa said.

He reminded the Speaker that it was unanimously decided that the DGP should provide a detailed report on the matter. This decision underscores the House’s commitment to upholding integrity of our law enforcement agencies and ensuring justice for citizens, he said.

He added that due to the seriousness of the issue, which resonates with every peace-loving citizen of Punjab, it has become imperative for the government to address this challenge promptly.

“I also propose that a two-hour discussion be allocated for an in-depth discussion of the report to ensure a thorough examination and address any concerns that may arise,” he said.
