Ajit Doval who twice said the state had been alerted 10 days in advance - Grewal

Hajipur Talwara, 17 August 2015 :
National Security Adviser Shri Ajit Doval who twice said the state had been alerted 10 days in advance, National BJP Leader from Punjab Sukhminderpal Singh Grewal seeks probe on missing intel file about terrorist movement. Talking with the media persons here today Grewal demanded that an independent agency should probe why a file of the central intelligence agencies about terrorist movement is misplaced by the Punjab Police intelligence wing. Grewal questioned how such an important file could go missing. Grewal said that an alert was sounded on the issue 10 days before the Dinanagar terrorist attack. BJP leader was referring to a statement made by National Security Adviser Ajit Doval who twice said the state had been alerted 10 days in advance. On whether he implied that Punjab Police DGP Sumedh Singh Saini was lying about not having received the file, he said it's a very serious matter. Where did the file vanish ? That is why I am asking for a thorough probe so that the offices of all concerned including Chief Minister and Deputy Chief Minister, be questioned and the guilty be made accountable for a serious security lapse in the state of Punjab. Grewal said today Punjab terror attacks shows complete failure of Punjab Police Intelligence Wing Chief. He praised the Punjab Police Force for showing immense courage and bravery in tackling this tough situation. Grewal strongly condemned the terror attacks which were first in twenty two years , happened in Dinanagar district of Gurdaspur in Punjab. He urged all political parties to take a united stand against such act of Terrorism and called this a time of serious introspection as where it all went wrong? Grewal said the same Modus operandi was followed which was seen in our adjoining state of Jammu, in that incident district Hiranagar was the target  but modus operandi was very indentical as it took place in broad daylight and a car was stolen ultimately shots were fired before the terrorist took the local police station under there control. Grewal questioned " How is it possible that Punjab state intelligence wing chief didn't had a clue ?", "How come a few terrorists enter Punjab, steal a car and capture a police station?". He said the Punjab Police Intelligence chief should come out and take responsibility of the casualties and the situation which have arisen because of his inability to provide input to the government. He has failed completely in doing justice with his designation. Grewal praised the Media of Punjab who have sent there finest reporters to the Dinanagar and are reporting while putting there lives in danger and urged the media to bring up this serious issue in the public. So, this type of negligence from Punjab police intelligence wing do not happen again in Punjab.
