CHANDIGARH: Responding to the Aam Aadmi Party-led Punjab government’s decision to roll back its move to dissolve the panchayats, leader of opposition in the state assembly Partap Singh Bajwa termed it a victory of the democratic institutions.
The senior Congress leader stated that the AAP government was “compelled” to take back such an “undemocratic” decision only after it got pulled up by the Punjab and Haryana high court. “The Punjab Congress also took a firm stand against this irrational decision and raised the issue on several platforms,” Bajwa said.
