You are sleeping peacefully in your house because the man is serving on the border at -40 degrees (Celsius) … We are going to dismiss it with a huge cost. Such anarchy is not acceptable. Look at the CBI … they go and defend you, and they come back wrapped in a national flag, “the bench said.HC ordered a CBI inquiry into the alleged attack of army Colonel Pushpinder Singh Bath by Punjab police personnel in Patiala. This allowed the accused police of “preservation” to the accused police of Colonel Bath’s petition.
