Congress workers in Punjab plan a statewide protest today, surrounding SP offices and urging authorities to file a case against Minister Cheema in the Gulzar Singh suicide matter.
Punjab's Congress party announced a coordinated protest across all districts today, targeting the offices of senior police officials. The demonstration is linked to the recent suicide of Gulzar Singh, with party members insisting that Minister Cheema be formally implicated in the case.
Activists plan to encircle the Superintendent of Police (SP) offices, demanding that the state government register a criminal complaint against the minister. The party has framed the protest as a demand for accountability and swift legal action.
No official response from the minister's office or the police has been recorded at the time of reporting. The protest is expected to draw significant local attention as it unfolds across multiple towns in Punjab.
The Congress has urged its supporters to maintain a peaceful demeanor while making their demands clear, emphasizing the need for a transparent investigation into the suicide case.
Authorities are monitoring the situation, and any escalation could prompt additional security measures, though no disruptions have been reported yet.
