Chandigarh – Five times former Chief Minister Sardar Parkash Singh Badal said here on Friday that Punjab Chief Minister Captain Amarinder Singh was up to his old ‘policy of political and personal vendetta against the SAD in general and against him in particular.’ The former Chief Minister also said that ‘Justice Ranjit Singh (Retd) had lowered the dignity of the judiciary in the country by allowing himself to be used as an instrument of vendetta” in the hands of the Congress government in Punjab headed by Captain Singh.’The entire country in general and the judicial and legal fraternity in particular have been shocked by Justice Ranjit Singh’s act of “practically releasing the so-called inquiry report on the sensitive issue of the sacrilege of the sacred Sri Guru Granth Sahib even while still going through the motions of collecting and recording our version of the events in this regard,” said the former chief minister.Badal also said ‘the timing of the release this sponsored, fake and prefabricated Congress document was significant as it comes on the eve of the byelection to the Shahkot assembly constituency scheduled for May 28. “This shows just how politicised the so-called report and the psyche of its authors is. This is a sad hour for the dignity of judiciary in the country,” said Badal. Badal said that Captain Amaridner Singh had learnt nothing from his disastrous policy of confrontation and vendetta against the Akali leaders. “He subjected me, my family and practically every Akali leader and their families to the most inhuman, repressive and oppressive vendetta. He leveled the wildest allegations of amassing wealth against me and my colleagues and for five years, the Congress government did nothing except remaining obsessed with ‘Badla, Badli and Badal,” he said.
