The Punjab government on Friday delegated senior supporter Deepinder Singh Patwalia as new backer general (AG) instead of APS Deol who had surrendered on November 1 following interest for his ouster by state Congress boss Navjot Singh Sidhu
A help matters attorney, 47-year-old Patwalia is the child of previous Supreme Court judge Kuldeep Singh. A former student of Panjab University, he was assigned as a senior supporter by the Punjab and Haryana high court in 2014.
Patwalia’s name was viewed as first after Charanjit Singh Channi took over as boss priest on September 20. Yet, the decision fell on Deol, who before long ran into debate for being the protection advice of previous DGP Sumedh Singh Saini and another charged in the 2015 blasphemy savagery cases. Sidhu had been gunning for Deol.
Patwalia, who assumed control over the workplace late on Friday evening, has different difficulties before him. The Channi government is running against time in front of surveys and is squeezing for some sort of leap forward in drugs cases and 2015 heresy savagery cases. Previously, the Sidhu-drove bunch had been disparaging of Amarinder Singh legislature of late tests on both these issues.
The high court is yet to settle on opening of fixed cover reports in Punjab’s medications cases. As of test in 2015 blasphemy brutality cases, it has additionally gained little headway as the arrangement of unique public examiner Rajwinder Singh Bains has run into debate and there is a stay on test against Saini in any FIR till February from the high court. Saini’s part in developing the case in heresy viciousness cases is viewed as critical.
