Governor Banwarilal Purohit and Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann. (File)Amid an ongoing tussle between the Raj Bhavan and the Punjab government, the Opposition parties — Congress and the BJP — Saturday hit out at the ruling Aam Aadmi Party calling it “a party of anarchists” and accusing it of entering into an “unnecessary confrontation with the Governor”.
The row between the Raj Bhavan and the AAP government escalated Friday after Governor Banwarilal Purohit sought a list on the legislative businesses to be taken up in the proposed Assembly session on Tuesday, sparking a strong reaction from Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann, who said it was “too much”. Purohit had earlier in the week come under fire after he had foiled the state government’s plan to summon a special Assembly session on September 22 to bring a “confidence motion”.
Punjab BJP general secretary Subhash Sharma alleged that the AAP government was “deliberately trying to sabotage and undermine the Constitution of the country by maliciously targeting the Governor, who is the Constitutional head of the state”. Addressing media, Sharma alleged that “the AAP was living up to its reputation of being a party of anarchists and anarchy was their mission and purpose.”
“Otherwise what is the point in adopting a combative and confrontationist attitude towards the Governor who has only raised constitutional queries, which he is entitled and authorized to do under the Constitution of the country,” he added.
“Under the Constitution of the country, the Governor was duty bound to raise the queries, which he had raised. What is the problem in telling him about the agenda of the special Vidhan Sabha session the AAP government is trying to convene?,” Sharma asked.
