Punjab BJP president Sunil Jakhar is calling for a time bound inquiry into allegations of corruption in the state, urging Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann to order an investigation under the supervision of the Chief Justice of the Punjab and Haryana High Court. Jakhar said an independent process is needed to examine all leaders, including himself, so the public can see a full accounting of the claims.
He questioned the Chief Minister’s recent remarks suggesting he has files related to wrongdoing, asking why those documents have not been opened or shared with an impartial authority. Jakhar said bringing the information before a court monitored inquiry would help restore trust in how allegations of misconduct are handled.
The comments come as the state Congress faces internal turmoil over corruption accusations. Earlier this week, party member Navjot Kaur Sidhu publicly alleged that major financial influence shapes leadership decisions within the organisation, intensifying political pressure across Punjab’s major parties.
The issue has sparked renewed debate about oversight and political accountability in the province, where calls for stronger anti corruption mechanisms frequently emerge during periods of internal party unrest.
