Punjab Drug Menace, Amit Shah Visits Victims' Families, Political Showdown Over Law And Order

Union Home Minister Amit Shah visited Punjab to meet the families of victims affected by the drug menace, including the kin of anti-drug activist Parwinder Singh Jhota in Mansa, who was shot dead while confronting a chemist shop owner on camera. Shah's itinerary included meetings across Sangrur, Gurdaspur, Mansa, and Ludhiana to assure families of stringent action against offenders. The outreach triggered a political showdown with Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann, whose administration defended its record while countering allegations regarding law and order.
