Harchand Singh Barsat and Gagandeep Singh Chadha will lead the protest
Patiala, August 5 2021
Demanding dismissal of the Captain Amarinder Singh-led Congress government’s minister Sadhu Singh Dharamsot for embezzeling post-matric scholarships money of lakhs of Dalit students, the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) will stage a protest and burn the effigy of the minister on Friday. Disclosing this here on Thursday, Patiala district president (Rural) Meghchand Sher Majra and district president (Urban) Tejinder Mehta said the AAP will express resentment by burning an effigy of Sadhu Singh Dharamsot at Patiala Gate Nabha at 10 am. They said the protest will be led by the party’s state general secretary Harchand Singh Barsat and secretary Gagandeep Singh Chadha.
Addressing the media, Meghchand Sher Majra and Tejinder Mehta said the non-cooperation of the Captain government in the CBI investigation of the multi-crore post-matric scholarship scam perpetrated by corrupt minister Sadhu Singh Dharamsot, proves that Captain Amarinder Singh wants to save his ‘earning’ son Sadhu Singh Dharamsot, involved in ill-gotten gains.
The leaders demanded the Captain government to take strict action against minister Sadhu Singh Dharamsot with his immediate sacking from the cabinet. They further demanded that the CBI should be helped in providing necessary information to investigate the scam; so that the corrupt minister can be sent to jail at the earliest. They said special responsibility related to the protest has been given to Nabha constituency in-charge Gurdev Singh Dev Mann with instructions to all the district leaders, office-bearers and party volunteers.
