It is worth mentioning here that BJP on Sunday has raised the issue and claimed that the party’s anti-national agenda has been exposed once again.

State BJP leaders had said ever since the Aam Aadmi Party government came to power in Punjab, the anti-national forces have started raising their voices against the country. After Punjab, its effect is now visible in Himachal also. Harpreet Singh Bedi of its state unit is himself taking the side of Khalistanis. They are demanding separate currency and separate nation through tweets.

They had alleged that tweets by Bedi have proved that Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal is associated with Khalistanis.
