Mumbai: Union minister Meenakshi Lekhi on Tuesday hit out at the Aam Aadmi Party government in Punjab over the killing of Punjabi singer and Congress leader Sidhu Moose Wala, calling it “symbolic” of the state’s misrule.

Lekhi also alleged that the singer’s murder was the nineteenth incident after the AAP government led by Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann came to power. Also Read: Why Security Of Sidhu Moose Wala Was Reduced, Information Leaked? Asks Punjab & Haryana HC To AAP Govt

“This is not the first murder, it’s the 90th murder since they (AAP government in Punjab) have come to power. Sidhu Moose Wala’s murder with 30 rounds is just symbolic of misgovernance which is going on in the state,” Lekhi told ANI.

Sidhu Moose Wala was shot dead by unidentified assailants yesterday while passing through Jawaharke village in Mansa district. The gruesome incident took place two days after the Punjab Police withdrew the security of 424 people including him.

Meanwhile, the Punjab High Court on Monday issued notice to the state government and issued a detailed report on the number of people whose security was reduced or withdrawn, and the reasons for the decision.

After Canada’s Goldie Brar took responsibility for the murder of Sidhu Moose Wala, the Special Cell of Delhi Police has also started questioning Lawrence Bishnoi in Tihar Jail in connection with the murder of Sidhu Moose Wala. Brar is a close associate of Bishnoi, who is also said to have been involved in the singer’s murder.

Punjab Police have registered an FIR against unknown persons after Sidhu Moose Wala was shot dead by unidentified assailants in Jawaharke village of Mansa district. The FIR has been registered under sections 302, 307, and 341 of the Indian Penal Code and sections 25 and 27 of the Arms Act at City-1 at Mansa Police Station.
