Two policemen condemn Navjot Singh Sidhu’s ‘make a cop wet his pants’ remark

Punjab Congress chief Navjot Singh Sidhu has courted controversy over his “make a cop wet his pants” remark with two police officials strongly condemning and dubbing it as “shameful”.Even Congress MP from Ludhiana Ravneet Singh Bittu backed the policemen and praised them for their role during militancy and Covid-19 times.The controversy erupted after Sidhu at a recent rally in Sultanpur Lodhi while pointing towards sitting MLA Navtej Singh Cheema said he can make a “thanedar(cop) wet his pants”.

He repeated this remark during a rally at Batala on Sunday when local leader Ashwani Sekhri was standing by his side.

When reporters asked about his remark, Sidhu said, “Listen to me…it is a fictional thing that this man wields authority…”A video clip of Sidhu making the remark went viral on social media inviting sharp reaction from some police officials.Chandigarh Deputy Superintendent of Police Dilsher Singh Chandel dubbed Sidhu’s remark as “shameful””It is very shameful that such a senior leader uses these words for his own force and humiliates them,” said Chandel.”This is the same force which protects him (Sidhu) and his family,” he said in a video message.He even dared Sidhu to return his force deployed for his protection. “Without (security) force, even a rickshaw puller will not listen to him,” he said.”I strongly condemn this remark and he (Sidhu) should not use such words for his force.

The force has its own dignity and respect and it is our responsibility to maintain this dignity,” he said.Punjab police sub-inspector Balbir Singh, posted at Jalandhar Rural, too strongly condemned Sidhu’s remark.”Such language was used by a senior leader against us, I strongly condemn it,” he said in a video message.
