In a swipe against Punjab Governor Gulab Chand Kataria’s anti-drug foot march, the Congress on Tuesday alleged that it was an attempt to revive the SAD-BJP alliance ahead of the state polls next year.The SAD had snapped its decades-old ties with the BJP in 2020 over the issue of now-scrapped three central agriculture laws, against which farmers had held a year-long protest at the Delhi borders after they were stopped from entering the Capital.The Governor’s four-day padyatra, which will cover border districts, is second such endeavour since April last year. In a statement critical of the initiative, Punjab Congress president Amrinder Singh Raja Warring dubbed it as the “Samjhauta Express”, a bi-weekly train between Delhi and Lahore that was discontinued after the Pulwama terror attack in 2019.“My humble question to the Punjab Governor is whether the march he is leading is actually a campaign against drugs or a bid to run the Samjhuta Express and prepare ground for a Akali-BJP alliance in the state,” he wrote on X.He said it looked as if the CPR (cardiopulmonary resuscitation) — a life-saving emergency procedure to revive the heat beat — was being applied on the “dying SAD” ahead of the Assembly elections.‘Expansion of BSF jurisdiction also failed to yield results’Warring also questioned Kataria if he raised the issue of the border security with the BJP-led Centre, saying it fell in the purview of the Union Home Ministry. He pointed out that the BSF jurisdiction was expanded to up to 50 km inside the border with Pakistan by a central order.“While the AAP government has completely failed already, what is the Centre doing to prevent the smuggling of drugs from across the border,” he asked.“I would request you to raise the matter with the Union Home Ministry before running the Samjhauta Express for an Akali-BJP alliance in the name of anti-drug march,” he said.
