Himachal Khalistani flags row: CM claims to have spoken with the central government – 10 points

The state police had sealed the borders on Sunday after the banned Khalistan group ‘Sikhs For Justice’ (SFJ) claimed responsibility. Meanwhile, as the incident occurs months before the state elections later this year, the opposition has been attacking the BJP government.

4. The state tightened security measures and closed borders. According to police, the “sealing” of the border meant strict checks on vehicles and people entering the hilly state.

4. The case was investigated by a seven-member SIT. Pro-Khalistan slogans were also reportedly scrawled on the walls of the state assembly, which were later painted over.

5. According to Kundu, all top police officers were told to “seal all interstate borders and barriers and maintain a strict vigil at places of possible hideouts, such as hotels and inns of criminal elements.” “They have been directed to keep the special security units (SSUs), bomb disposal squads, and quick reactions teams (QRTs) in position and on high alert,” he was quoted as saying in reports.

7. “The cowardly incident was carried out as a result of this, but the government will not tolerate it.” The perpetrators will be apprehended soon, no matter where they are. “The perpetrators of this incident will face severe consequences,” he had stated.

8. In the meantime, the opposition has seized the opportunity to attack the BJP ahead of the state elections. The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP), which is gaining traction in the election-bound state, called the incident a “complete security failure” by the BJP-led government.

9. AAP state spokesperson and retired DGP ID Bhandari said, “The government under whose rule such an incident occurred has no right to be in power.”
