Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Singh Mann on Wednesday said that sorry state of affairs was prevailing in the country as any view or idea opposite to propaganda of the BJP is now being labeled as anti-national.

Interacting with the media persons here at his official residence, the Chief Minister said that it is ironic that Union Minister of State Ravneet Singh Bittu has contradicted his stand on Operation Sindoor by saying that he was echoing the voice of Pakistan. He said that it is unfortunate that Bittu has issued such irrational statements whereas his masters sitting in Delhi have been giving hypothetical and baseless statements. Bhagwant Singh Mann said that the Union Minister of State has forgotten that his own party has backtracked from their decision to send Sindoor to every household.

The Chief Minister said that this type of attitude is unwarranted and undesirable adding that it is not in the interest of the country. He said that for the first time in the history of the world any government is sending its nominees across the globe to tell everyone that they have emerged victorious in a war. Bhagwant Singh Mann said that there is no need to tell anyone about the victory as the triumph is self speaking.

Asked to comment on the arrest of a Youtuber from the state, the Chief Minister said that the Union government regulates the social media channels in the country. However, he said that if any anti-national activity comes to the notice of the law enforcing agencies in the state then an appropriate action is taken against them as per the law of land. Bhagwant Singh Mann unequivocally said that anyone involved in crime against the country cannot be spared and exemplary action is taken against them.
