'Over 600 beadbis in 10 yrs': Harsimrat targets AAP, Cong over sacrilege cases

Shiromani Akali Dal leader Harsimrat Kaur Badal has criticized the Punjab governments of the AAP and the Congress over a series of sacrilege incidents, known as "beadbi," that have occurred over the past decade. She claimed that more than 600 such incidents have taken place in Punjab during this time. Apologizing for one such incident during her party's rule, Harsimrat vowed to continue pursuing the perpetrators until justice is served.

She also accused the opposition parties of politicizing the sensitive issue and failing to address the numerous beadbi cases that have taken place. Harsimrat appealed to the people of Punjab to end the "remote control rule" from Delhi, stating that restoring peace and communal harmony should be the top priorities for the SAD if it returns to power.

She also addressed the attack on her husband Sukhbir Singh Badal in Maharashtra, urging Punjabis to stay united and reject the divisive forces that are harming the state.
