Punjab School Education Department Has Become a Platform for CJP Propaganda: Kewal Dhillon

Objection Raised Over Circulation of Poster Listing Four Demands of CJP on Education Department’s WhatsApp Channel

Chandigarh, October 12, 2026:Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) State President Kewal Singh Dhillon has alleged that official channels of Punjab Government departments are being misused. On Saturday, a poster promoting a protest being held in Delhi by the Cockroach Janata Party (CJP) against Chief Election Commissioner of India Gyanesh Kumar was circulated on the official WhatsApp channel of the Punjab School Education Board (PSEB), which has approximately 4.48 lakh followers. He stated that the poster also carried a photograph of CJP founder Abhijit Deepke. The circulation of this poster has raised serious questions about the functioning of the Education Department. Therefore, the Punjab Education Minister, the Chief Minister of Punjab, and the National Convenor of the Aam Aadmi Party must answer for this incident.

What Syllabus Includes Political Demands?
Kewal Singh Dhillon said that the poster listed four political demands. The first demand was to halt all upcoming elections and restore the electoral rolls of January 2025. The second called for repealing the 2023 law concerning the appointment of the Chief Election Commissioner and enacting a new law. The third demand was the resignation of Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar. The fourth called for an immediate halt to the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) process and the formation of an inquiry committee.

He questioned the Education Minister, asking which academic syllabus included such information.

Questioning the Punjab Government, the BJP State President asked what protests against the Election Commission and demands to halt elections had to do with school education. He also asked who had authorised the circulation of this poster on the Education Department’s official WhatsApp channel.

Seeking answers from the Punjab Education Minister, Kewal Dhillon questioned who had directed the misuse of government resources. He asked why a trusted platform used by lakhs of students and teachers was being misused to promote a political agenda. He further questioned whether election-related politics would now be taught in the Education Department. He asked whether anyone was monitoring the channel and how the poster had reached 4.48 lakh people without any scrutiny or verification. He demanded an impartial investigation into the matter.

The Channel Was Created for Students & Schools
Kewal Dhillon stated that the Education Department’s official channel is intended to disseminate departmental circulars, holiday notifications, and official information related to admissions and examinations to students, teachers, and parents. In view of the incident, he said that the Chief Minister should take serious cognisance of the matter, fix accountability, and introduce strict guidelines governing the dissemination of content to ensure that such lapses do not recur in the future.

Punjab Witnesses Jungle Raj-Like Situation, Chief Minister Mann Must Resign Immediately: Kewal Singh Dhillon

5 Police Personnel, Including 4 ASIs, Murdered in 7 Months; 2 ASIs Face Deadly Attacks

Chandigarh, October 12, 2026:The law and order situation in Punjab has completely collapsed. Forget the general public, even Punjab Police personnel are no longer safe. The broad daylight shooting and murder of ASI Iqbal Singh in Tarn Taran is the latest example of this deteriorating situation. Since February, he is the fourth ASI to have been murdered. These remarks were made by Punjab BJP President Kewal Singh Dhillon in a statement issued from the party office in Chandigarh.

Launching a scathing attack on the Aam Aadmi Party government, he said that Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann must resign from his post immediately. The Home Department is under his charge, and his department bears direct responsibility for these murders.
He said that a Home Minister who fails to ensure the security of the state has no right to remain in office.

*4 ASIs Murdered in 7 Months

Dhillon said that this was not an isolated incident. The murders of four ASIs and one Home Guard, along with deadly attacks on two ASIs over the past seven months, are evidence that jungle raj prevails in Punjab. Gangsters are openly posting on social media and claiming responsibility for these murders and attacks. This demonstrates that gangsters no longer fear the law, while the Punjab government remains a silent spectator.
The Punjab BJP President also questioned the Aam Aadmi Party supremo, asking what had happened to his earlier claim that gangsters should leave Punjab or face being driven out.
He said that the promise to make Punjab free of gangsters had also proved hollow. Perhaps the reason is that the Chief Minister of Punjab has no time for the state. He remains busy either cracking jokes at public events or attending to the needs of the AAP supremo.
Kewal Singh Dhillon said that direct attacks on police personnel are breaking their morale, while personnel deployed on the ground are feeling increasingly unsafe.

BJP supports Punjab’s employees; AAP must change its for ‘anti-employees’ policies: Ashwani Kumar Sharma

AAP government misleading employees with announcements and assurances. Should take concrete steps to resolve their issues: Ashwani Kumar Sharma

Pathankot, October 12:Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) MLA from Pathankot, Ashwani Kumar Sharma, on Monday, criticized the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) governments for its ‘anti-employees’ and ‘anti-worker’ policies, and extended the BJP’s support to Punjab government employees and pensioners for their two-day mass leave on October 21 and 22. The Punjab government employees and pensioners have announced the mass leave to protest against the AAP’s failure to fulfil their long-pending demands.

Sharma said, “The AAP government had repeatedly failed to honour its assurances to employees despite their continued efforts to draw attention to their genuine concerns. Employees, pensioners and workers form the backbone of the state’s administrative machinery and public services. Instead of addressing their grievances through meaningful dialogue, the AAP government is forcing them to take to the streets to demand their legitimate rights.”
“The BJP stands firmly with Punjab’s employees, pensioners and workers. Their demands deserve serious consideration, not empty assurances. A government that came to power by promising change must be accountable for its commitments. Employees should not have to repeatedly protest to secure benefits and rights that have been pending for years,” Sharma said

He highlighted the employees’ demands, including the release of pending dearness allowance instalments and arrears, restoration of the Old Pension Scheme, regularisation of contractual and outsourced employees, and resolution of issues concerning allowances, pay scales and pension benefits.
Sharma said that the BJP believes that the concerns of employees must be heard and addressed with sensitivity, transparency and accountability. “The AAP government must stop misleading employees with announcements and assurances and take concrete steps to resolve their issues”, he added.

Supreme Court’s Refusal to Stay CBI Action Deals a Setback to Punjab Government: Sampla

Aam Aadmi Party government should not create confusion; Supreme Court has not stayed CBI action: Sampla

Ghuman will now have to join the investigation and face questions from the investigating agency: Sampla

Jalandhar, October 12, 2026:Former Union Minister of State and former Punjab BJP State President Vijay Sampla said on Monday that the Supreme Court’s decision in the corruption case involving the Chief Minister’s Office (CMO) was a major setback for the Aam Aadmi Party government in Punjab. The Supreme Court has rejected the state government’s plea seeking a stay on CBI action. Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann’s Officer on Special Duty (OSD), Rajbir Singh Ghuman, can no longer evade the investigation. He will have to appear before the investigating agency, answer its questions and provide the documents sought by the agency.

Sampla said that the Supreme Court had treated the matter seriously and allowed the FIR to remain in force. Had any such relief been granted, the FIR would have been quashed, but that had not happened. He said this was not the first case in Punjab in which serious allegations had been levelled against people close to the Chief Minister’s Office. He alleged that under the AAP government, the CMO itself had become a centre of corruption. The BJP leader said that Ghuman was one of the closest officials to the Chief Minister.

He said that the investigation against Ghuman meant that the heat of the probe was now reaching the Chief Minister directly. This, he alleged, was why the Aam Aadmi Party was rattled and attempting to create confusion over the Supreme Court’s order. Sampla demanded that Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann break his silence on the matter and tell the public what allegations had been levelled against his OSD and why the government was allegedly trying to shield him.

He said that, on moral grounds, the Chief Minister should immediately remove Ghuman from his post to ensure a fair investigation. He added that the BJP would take this issue to the public and explain how, according to the party, the Aam Aadmi Party government was patronising corruption in Punjab. Following the Supreme Court’s order, the truth would now come to light, he said.
