Senior Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) leaders Daljit Singh Cheema and Arshdeep Singh Kler have publicly accused the State government of orchestrating a politically motivated disproportionate assets case against party member Mr. Majithia, following his recent grant of bail. The allegations frame the legal proceedings as a calculated act of vendetta rather than a legitimate judicial process, raising significant concerns about the potential weaponization of state institutions for partisan ends. This development underscores the escalating tensions within the regional political landscape, where legal actions are increasingly interpreted through a lens of inter-party rivalry. The SAD's forceful narrative seeks to delegitimize the charges and galvanize support by portraying their figure as a victim of systemic abuse. Such claims, if substantiated, could erode public trust in governance and the rule of law, while simultaneously impacting electoral dynamics. The situation warrants close monitoring as it reflects broader patterns of political confrontation where legal accountability and political strategy become dangerously intertwined.
