The growing restlessness and mindless living among the youth should be addressed in an organized manner and not left arbitrarily to their own decision, which would prove fatal for the state.
As the Bhagwant Mann Government faces back-to-back controversies, from Laljit Singh Bhullar stepping down over abetment to suicide allegations, to MLAs like Harmeet Singh Pathanmajra facing rape and criminal charges, and Manjinder Singh Lalpura already convicted in an assault case, the issue now goes beyond isolated incidents. With multiple serious cases emerging from within the system, the question shifts from individuals to accountability itself. Is this just a series of separate controversies, or does it reflect deeper cracks within the Aam Aadmi Party’s governance model in Punjab ?
जैसे भगवंत मान सरकार लगातार विवादों का सामना कर रही है, जहाँ लालजीत सिंह भुल्लर को आत्महत्या के लिए उकसाने के आरोपों के बीच इस्तीफा देना पड़ा, वहीं हरमीत सिंह पठानमाजरा पर दुष्कर्म और अन्य आपराधिक आरोप लगे हैं, और मनजिंदर सिंह लालपुरा पहले ही एक हमले के मामले में दोषी ठहराए जा चुके हैं, मामला अब अलग-अलग घटनाओं से आगे बढ़ चुका है। जब सिस्टम के भीतर से ही लगातार गंभीर मामले सामने आ रहे हों, तो सवाल व्यक्तियों से हटकर जवाबदेही पर आ जाता है। क्या यह केवल अलग-अलग विवादों की कड़ी है, या फिर पंजाब में आम आदमी पार्टी के शासन मॉडल में गहरे स्तर पर दरारें दिख रही हैं ?
The resignation of Laljit Singh Bhullar, following serious allegations linked to the death of a government official who reportedly named him in a final video, has brought the focus sharply on accountability and governance in Punjab. While Bhagwant Mann has ordered an inquiry and accepted the resignation, the gravity of the allegations, including claims of harassment, pressure, and misconduct, raises deeper concerns about whether such action is enough in cases involving public officials and abuse of power. Opposition leaders are also questioning whether this is real accountability or just immediate damage control. In such a sensitive and serious case, is seeking a resignation enough to ensure justice, or does this situation demand stronger, more transparent, and time- bound action to truly establish accountability and restore public trust ?
