Chief Minister Mann commented on various state matters, including making political accusations. He attributed an unspecified incident to what he characterized as the Bharatiya Janata Party’s (BJP) “anti-SC propaganda,” asserting that the party aims “to harm the interests of people from weaker and underprivileged sections through its venomous propaganda.” The Chief Minister also confirmed that the state government has implemented extensive security arrangements, with the Punjab Police prepared to ensure public safety.
Addressing public safety during an unnamed festival, Mann urged citizens to exercise caution to prevent a rise in eye injuries. Regarding recent floods, the Chief Minister acknowledged opposition criticism but stated that such events are natural calamities, not unprecedented in the state. He confirmed that the state government has submitted a report on flood-related losses to the Central government, emphasizing ongoing efforts to restore normalcy in affected districts and requesting Central financial assistance.
Finally, Chief Minister Mann expressed profound sorrow over the deaths of notable singer Rajvir Jwanda, deeming it an “irreparable loss” to the Punjabi music industry, and eminent sportsperson and bodybuilder Varinder Ghuman.
