Probe on

Punjab Pradesh Congress Committee President Amarinder Singh condemned the attack on the RSS leader.
“Such nefarious designs deserve to be nipped in the bud lest these push Punjab into anarchy,” he said in a statement.
People may not agree or approve of RSS ideology, but in a democracy everyone has a right to pursue his political and ideological beliefs, Amarinder said.
“Such intimidation is unacceptable,” he said.
