BJP spokesperson Sambit Patra attacked Punjab Chief Minister Charanjit Singh Channi on the PM security breach issue. He questioned the Punjab CM on Twitter why a sitting chief minister briefed Priyanka Vadra on Prime Minister's security.
He said, "What constitutional post does Priyanka hold & who’s She to be kept on loop regarding PM’s security?" "Channi Saab ..be truthful..you must have said to her काम हो गया सी …आपने जो बोला था,वो हो गया!, ” he added.
Channi said he had briefed party leader Priyanka Gandhi "on whatever happened here" on the PM security breach matter. After his statement, a controversy has erupted with Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) attacking the Congress party on the issue.
The prime minister's convoy was stranded on a flyover due to a blockade by protesters in Punjab's Ferozepur on January 5, after which he returned from the poll-bound state without attending any event, including a rally. The Punjab government has maintained that there was no security lapse, but has ordered a probe into the incident.
