New Delhi India January 8 ANI Former Puducherry lieutenant governor Kiran Bedi described the security breach by Prime Minister Narendra Modi's convoy near Punjab's Ferozepur as 100 per cent administrative failure and a pre-planned conspiracy, adding that the country escaped the assassination of its prime minister.
The plan to ambush the prime minister did not succeed, according to the former Puducherry LG. This is a 100 per cent administrative failure. The prime minister of the country survived a horrific attack. The state is located near the Pakistan border. There could have been a bomb under the bridge. I think this country has escaped the murder of its number one executive. She criticised the abscence of senior officials, including DGP, Chief Secretary, Home Secretary and District Magistrate, at the time of the incident.
All senior officials look for opportunities to meet the Prime Minister. I think they have to answer why they were absent. This is criminal negligence. Bedi told ANI that it is a protocol that when Prime Minister comes DGP, Chief Secretary, Home Secretary and District Magistrate comes.
She stated that the Chief Minister and the State Home Minister are responsible for the answer to the incident.
Do not associate this incident with Punjabiyat. Punjabis served the people during the COVID epidemic. She said that it is not possible to do such an act that affects the country's reputation.
She demanded the resignation of the DGP and the Chief Secretary.
It is criminal negligence. They have to be dismissed from the service. She added that a criminal case should be registered against them.
The convoy of Prime Minister Narendra Modi was stuck for 15 -- 20 minutes due to a road blockade in Punjab's Ferozepur. The prime minister, who was traveling by road, had to call off his event in Ferozepur on Wednesday.
