Ex-Punjab chief minister Amarinder Singh took down his successor Charanjit Singh Channi with a sumptuous remark yesterday.
Channi is going up and down in anger for Enforcement Directorate’s raid on his nephew Bhupinder Singh Honey in connection with the illegal sand mining case. Channi had said that Amarinder Singh, leader of Punjab Lok Congress and the Badal family were “jealous” that a person from poor family has become the chief minister.
Said Amarinder: “ED doesn’t report to me, Charanjit Singh Channi. Nor did I plant the money seized from your kin. So stop blaming me for your family’s crimes. As I always say, the law takes its own course.”
In the ED’s raids, several incriminating documents, mobile phones, over Rs 10 cr cash, gold etc were seized.
Channi has dubbed the raids as “political revenge.”
