Punjab: Former servicemen condemn Moga murder, demand action

Condemning the murder of the ex-serviceman at the hands of liquor mafia, Kahlon asked Chief Minister Parkash Singh Badal, to take urgent steps to protect the defence veterans in the state.

Similarly, the Ex-Servicemen Grievances Cell, Mohali, has also expressed its shock over the murder. Speaking to The Indian Express, Lt Col SS Sohi (retd), president of the cell said that it appeared that nobody was afraid of the rule of law in the state anymore. “If this is the state-of-affairs where the mafia is running amock even before elections have been announced, we can certainly expect worse when the actual campaining begins,” he said, adding that the ex-servicemen community is deeply hurt at the apathy being shown towards them by the state administration.
