PM Modi Security Breach in Punjab: Arrest Warrants Issued Against 25 Farmers
In a significant development regarding the security lapse during Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s visit to Punjab, arrest warrants have been issued against 25 farmers. The orders were issued by the Faridkot court, which has directed the station house officer of Kulgarhi police station to apprehend the individuals and produce them in court by January 22.
The case pertains to the January 2022 incident when PM Modi’s convoy was stranded on a flyover in Punjab for nearly 20 minutes due to a protest. The security lapse drew sharp criticism, raising concerns over the state’s law and order situation and prompting an investigation into the matter.
The accused farmers were reportedly part of the protest that blocked the route of the PM’s convoy. The court’s directive marks a significant step in holding individuals accountable for the breach.
Authorities are now under pressure to ensure swift action and compliance with the court’s orders. This case continues to draw national attention, with the security of high-profile leaders remaining a critical issue in India.
