Chandigarh, Jan 6: A day after a security breach during Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s Punjab visit, Bharatiya Janata Party’s six-member delegation led by its Punjab unit president Ashwani Sharma will meet state’s Governor Banwarilal Purohit on Thursday.
The BJP delegation will meet the Governor at the Raj Bhawan at 11 am, to give a memorandum on the matter.
Notably on Wednesday, PM’s convoy was stuck for 15-20 minutes due to a road blockade in the state. The PM, who was travelling by road, had to call off his event in Ferozepur. BJP blamed the ruling congress government for sabotaging PM’s schedule program and for the major security lapse.
The Union Home Ministry has ordered the state government to file an immediate report, claiming that it failed to ensure the required deployment, while Home Minister Amit Shah has stated that such a breach of security during the prime minister’s visit is completely unacceptable and that accountability will be established.
