‘Go ahead and do it’: CM Mann as Vijender Gupta calls for CBI probe into Punjab FSL report

NEW DELHI: Reacting to Delhi Assembly Speaker Vijender Gupta’s statement that the Punjab government’s Forensic Science Laboratory (FSL) would be investigated by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) over its report on the video pertaining to AAP leader Atishi, Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann on Saturday said the BJP should go ahead and do it.

Speaking to reporters, CM Bhagwant Mann said, “Do it. When they are in power, they should do it. When the forensic report itself clearly says that Atishi did not say such a thing, they still added subtitles and insulted the Gurus. The forensic report has come out and the court has ordered the removal of the videos. If the BJP’s CBI is above even forensic science, then let them get the investigation done.”

Meanwhile, AAP Delhi President Saurabh Bharadwaj also addressed a press conference and claimed that both forensic reports had reached the same conclusion.
