In the past, we’ve warned the Punjab government to pay heed to the state’s plight. Bhagwant Mann’s failure to perform his duties as Chief Minister lost the life of Sidhu Moosewala, and I demand an FIR against him. In addition to Arvind Kejriwal, Bhagwant Mann should be arrested, Manjinder Singh Sirsa said in a statement.
