Punjab Finance Minister Advocate Harpal Singh Cheema has strongly condemned the incident of desecration of Baba Saheb Dr. Bhim Rao Ambedkar’s statue in Amritsar on the 76th Republic Day.

He said that the Punjab government and Punjab Police are committed to bringing the culprits to justice and ensuring they face the law of the land to pay for their most dastardly act, he said in an official statement.

Finance Minister Cheema further said that a thorough investigation is underway to identify and arrest the real conspirators behind this heinous crime. “The accused has been arrested, and the Punjab government will ensure strict action against him. We will not rest until all the conspirators are brought to justice,” he added.

Appealing to the residents of Punjab to maintain peace and harmony while upholding the values enshrined in the Indian Constitution and preserving the legacy of Dr. Ambedkar, Finance Minister said that we must honour Baba Saheb’s legacy by standing united against such acts of hatred and division. “Punjab, the revered land of gurus and pirs, will never let the seeds of hatred take root,” he affirmed while adding, “Our community, with its rich cultural heritage, has thrived for centuries and will continue to flourish forever.”
