Laljit Bhullar Confirms Resignation Amid Controversy, Calls for Fair Probe

Punjab Cabinet Minister Laljit Singh Bhullar has resigned from his position, issuing his first public statement following the decision. Bhullar confirmed his resignation through his social media account, emphasizing the need for a proper and impartial investigation into the allegations against him. In his statement, Bhullar said, “The allegations made against me are completely baseless and false. However, our party has always stood with the truth. I want these allegations to be properly investigated so that the correct conclusions can emerge. Until the investigation is complete, I have requested the party and our respected Chief Minister to accept my resignation from the ministerial post, so that my position does not become an obstacle in the process of fair inquiry. I am sending my resignation to Chief Minister Bhagwant Singh Mann to ensure that this matter is thoroughly and transparently investigated.” The resignation comes after a controversial video went viral, prompting Chief Minister Bhagwant Singh Mann to seek Bhullar’s resignation. The Chief Minister has also directed the Chief Secretary to conduct an impartial investigation into the matter. The development marks a significant step by the Punjab government to address public concerns and maintain transparency within the administration.
