He categorically asked Sukhbir Badal to explain that why they were tight-lipped about Chandigarh when they were partners in the successive government at the centre. Bhagwant Mann said that Badals have remained mum for the sake of their vested political interests adding that even Congress leadership remained mute spectator on the entire matter.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;The Chief Minister further said that Akalis and Congress were trying to score brownie points before the media by issuing baseless statements.

He said that the target is to make Punjab a drug free state. Bhagwant Mann said that while the supply line of the drugs has been snapped, the state government is now focussing on putting drug peddlers behind the bars.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;The Chief Minister further said that maintenance of law and order was the top priority of the state government.
