Amritpal Singh Chase: Punjab and Haryana High Court has slammed the Punjab government over its failure to arrest Khalistan supporter Amritpal Singh as the search operation enters day four. The court asked 'what the 80,000 police personnel of the state are doing'. The court asked the state government why the separatist leader has not been arrested yet and asked CM Bhagwant Mann-led government to file a status report before it in four days.


Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann on Tuesday said that his government will not compromise with peace in the state and that he does the politics of development, and not religion. This is his first reaction since the Punjab police launched a massive crackdown to nab absconding separatist leader and Khalistan supporter, Amritpal Singh.


According to ANI, the CM said, "In the last few days, some elements were talking to spoil the environment of Punjab with the help of foreign powers and were giving hateful speeches. Action has been taken against them and they have been arrested and strict punishment will be given to them."


This comes as the hunt to nab pro-Khalistan "Waris Punjab De" chief Amritpal Singh entered the fourth day on Tuesday. While the radical leader's uncle Harjit Singh was bought to Dibrugarh Central Jail in Assam this morning, Amritpal is still on the run.


Sukhchain Singh Gill, Punjab Inspector General of Police (Headquarters), said that a total of 114 people have been arrested so far as a result of the crackdown on members of the Waris Punjab De organisation.


Sikh Leaders Condemn Attack On High Commission Offices


Sikh leaders from India and abroad have condemned the violence at the Indian High Commission in London and the Indian Consulate in San Francisco by supporters of fugitive Khalistani leader and Waris Punjab De chief Amritpal Singh. 


On Sunday, a group of protestors grabbed the tricolour flying atop the Indian High Commission in London and waved separatist Khalistani flags, and chanted pro-Khalistan slogans leading to arrests related to the violent disorder. 


In San Francisco, the protestors made an attempt to set fire to the Indian Consulate with senior Indian diplomats informing their American counterparts that they anticipate more such protests by anti-national elements in the coming weeks.


The move has been condemned by Sikh leaders from India and abroad.
