    APS Deol resigns as Punjab advocate general

    in News Updates


    APS Deol has resigned as the advocate general (AG) of Punjab. Thera had been a raging controversy ever since Deol was appointed to the post by chief minister Charanjit Singh Channi, with questions being asked within the Congress and outside.


    Deol was counsel to former DGP Sumedh Singh Saini in cases filed against him in a professional capacity. He had even argued to obtain a blanket bail for Saini.


    Congress state chief Navjot Sidhu also opposed the appointment of Deol as DG for similar reasons.


    Scores of Sikh netizens had also criticised the move and even ran a hashtag against Channi’s decision with #ChanniSavingSumedhSaini.


    Channi had strongly defended the decision saying ““An advocate works for somebody professionally. After he has been appointed by the government, he will work for the government now. He remained an advocate for Captain Amarinder Singh also for close to 20 years, when cases were registered against him during the Badal regime. Nothing more should be read into this appointment.”
