Sanjay Singh joins protest in Jammu against MLA Malik’s PSA detention, accuses BJP of silencing AAP

Jammu, Sep 10: AAP MP Sanjay Singh on Wednesday joined protests in Jammu against the detention of party’s Doda MLA Mehraj Malik under the Public Safety Act, calling it “illegal and unconstitutional.” He alleged that the BJP and Prime Minister Narendra Modi are trying to “crush AAP wherever its support grows.”

Singh said no MLA in J\&K has ever been booked under PSA and accused the BJP of filing false cases against AAP leaders, citing Arvind Kejriwal, Manish Sisodia and others. He said Malik was targeted simply for demanding a hospital for Doda.

“This is not PSA for terrorists, this is PSA for an elected representative. It’s a joke to call him a threat to public safety just because he speaks up and has followers on social media,” Singh told reporters. He vowed that AAP will fight the “unlawful act” on the streets, in Parliament, and in courts.
