“The prime minister had to visit for the inauguration and address a political rally. We regret that he had to return due to blockade en route,” Channi told reporters here. “After all, he is the prime minister of the country. We respect him. There is a democratic system and federal system,” said Channi.
His remarks came as the BJP and the Congress hit out at each other over the issue.
Channi claimed there was no security lapse of any kind and there was no situation of any attack.
He said there was a sudden change in the prime minister’s programme and the BJP should not politicise the issue. In a statement, the Union Home Ministry said that after the “major security lapse” in the prime minister’s travel in Punjab, his convoy decided to return. The ministry also asked the Punjab government to fix responsibility for the lapse and take strict action, the statement said.
