Lawrence Bishnoi to be brought back to serve time in Punjab jail: Bhagwant Mann

Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann on Friday said gangster Lawrence Bishnoi would be brought back to serve time in a Punjab jail.

“We are looking at legal options to get him back to a state jail. That is the only way to deal with him and his gang, which operates from Sabarmati Jail in Gujarat, under the protection of the BJP. His terror operation runs from there,” said Mann after the sitting of the second day of the Punjab Vidhan Sabha here.

Calling Union Home Minister Amit Shah “tadipaar”, Mann said Shah was asked to remain “tadipaar” from Gujarat in the past. “Now, such people have become home ministers. What else can you expect?”

When asked about BJP Delhi minister Manjinder Sirsa sending a legal notice to AAP state president Aman Arora, Mann sought an answer from Sirsa on “who has kept and supported gangsters”.

Mann, reacting to the Ministry of External Affairs statement against him, said, “Can’t I question the foreign policy? Wherever you go, why do Adani’s business operations start there? Can’t we question this? Does he take you to these places? Do you go there to further his business interests? I will ask these questions,” he said.

Continuing his tirade against the BJP government, he said, “When the conflict with Pakistan started, not a single country stood by us. But PM Modi decides to go round the world four times and goes to these countries whose names no one remembers. Talk to your own 140 crore people. Sort out the issue of water dispute between Punjab and Haryana.”
