CHANDIGARH: Punjab Congress president Amarinder Singh Raja Warring today condemned the malicious campaign by the Aam Aadmi Party leaders and legislators against Dr Raj Bahadur, the Vice Chancellor of the Baba Farid University of Health Sciences, Faridkot.
In a statement, Warring pointed out, on the one hand the Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann was quoted having apologized to Dr Raj Bahadur on behalf of his government, on the other hand various AAP leaders and their social media handles had launched a viciously malicious campaign against the VC leveling baseless allegations against him and justifying the ministers ‘Taliban-act’.
“The way your minister has not apologized to the VC and the way your party leaders have launched a sustained campaign against him, it is obvious your government approves of what the minister Jouramajra has done”, Warring told the Chief Minister.
The PCC president referred to lot of resentment prevailing among the medical fraternity with various associations of the doctors like the Indian Medical Association and the Punjab Civil Medical Services Association (PCMSA) already having opened up a front against the government and warned of further intensifying their stir which might affect the healthcare services in the state.
“There is a strong feeling of anger and resentment among the medical fraternity and instead of addressing it, your party is trying to justify what your minister has done”, the PCC president told the Chief Minister, suggesting to him that he needed to take stand to restore the confidence and trust of the doctors and other medical staff working across the state.
