In Punjab, a critical situation has arisen with the recent murder of two police officers at a police station in Gurdaspur district, about which the circumstances remain unclear. This incident has drawn attention away from another controversy involving the newly appointed chairman of the Batala Market Committee, Engineer Manik Mehta. Allegations have surfaced that police officers were assigned to duty during Mehta's pre-wedding shoot, reflecting a concerning misuse of police resources amid serious law enforcement issues.

The situation has intensified following the release of a viral video by a Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) leader, who called for the suspension of the officers involved. This has raised alarms over the priorities of the police force in Punjab, prompting demands for accountability from the state's Acting DGP and Chief Minister, who also holds the Home Minister position. The presence of police at a social event, instead of focusing on pressing security matters, has led to public outcry and criticism from various political figures.

As the controversy escalates on social media and public forums, the police department has yet to issue a formal response. With the video circulating widely, discussion has been reignited about the operational focus of law enforcement in Punjab, especially in light of the recent violent incident. Citizens are now left questioning the effectiveness and prioritization within the police force, which may lead to further scrutiny of police practices and accountability in the state.
