Addressing another question, the Chief Minister alleged that gangsters were patronized by Congress leaders in the past, which emboldened criminal elements. He noted that those very Congress leaders are now facing threats to their families from the same criminals they once supported. Bhagwant Singh Mann said that these leaders are now facing the consequences of their past misdeeds against the state and its people.
