Chandigarh, June 19, 2026 (Yes Punjab News)
Punjab Congress president Amarinder Singh Raja Warring today condemned the abusive and insulting remarks made by Chandigarh BJP president Jatinder Pal Malhotra against Punjabis at a public meeting.
During an event in Chandigarh, Malotra had described Punjabis as “emotional bloody fools”.
In a strong reaction to these remarks, Warring questioned the silence of the BJP leaders from Punjab, wondering how they could tolerate such abuse and insult of the Punjabi community.
The PCC president observed that Mahlotra had actually revealed the real mindset of the BJP that is hostile and hateful towards Punjab and the Punjabis. “Malhotra may have unknowingly revealed the BJP’s thinking about the Punjabis”, he remarked.
The PCC president asked the Punjab BJP leaders, particularly the state president Kewal Singh Dhillon, whether he agreed with what Malotra had said about Punjabis, which included him as well. He expressed surprise over the silence of the Punjab BJP leadership even after many days have passed since Malhotra made these remarks.
Meanwhile, Congress workers staged protests across Punjab demanding action against the BJP leader. They also sought an unconditional apology from him.
The party workers took out protest marches in various district headquarters, raising slogans against the BJP and its Chandigarh president Malhotra. They said, Malhotra had actually revealed the deep hatred the BJP leaders nourished for the Punjabis.
