Capt Amarinder ridicules Mann over Ansari’s detention

Chandigarh: Senior Bharatiya Janata Party leader and former Punjab Chief Minister Capt Amarinder Singh today ridiculed the statement of Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann saying that his government will claim the money paid to supreme court lawyers in connection with the detention of Mukhtar Ansari in Punjab.

Reacting to the statement, the former Chief Minister asked Mann to learn the process of law and investigation before issuing such statements that only expose his ignorance about the process of governance.

Capt Amarinder said, he had remained the Chief Minister of the state for nine and a half years, while Mann has not completed one and a half years even and he should better first learn and gain experience before making such ignorant statements about the processes of governance.

He said Ansari was brought to Punjab and detained here under due process of law for the investigation. “Where does the Chief Minister or for that matter the Jails’ Minister come into the picture”, he asked Mann, while advising him to brush up his knowledge of legal and investigative processes before making such funny statements which will only end up in his (Mann) cutting a sorry figure in the public.
