Prime Vista News
Family of deceased Punjab Warehousing Corporation official Gagandeep Randhawa demands arrest of former minister Laljit Bhullar within 24 hours, threatens protest over delay.
The death of a senior Punjab Warehousing Corporation official has triggered a political storm in Punjab, with the bereaved family demanding swift action against those named in the case. The family of Gagandeep Randhawa has issued a 24-hour ultimatum to the state government, calling for the immediate arrest of former minister Laljit Bhullar and others accused in the matter.
The case, which has drawn widespread attention across the state, has raised serious questions about administrative accountability, political influence, and delays in police action.
Family Issues 24-Hour Deadline
Addressing the media in Amritsar on Monday morning, Randhawa’s widow, Upendra Kaur, expressed deep frustration over what she described as inaction by the authorities.
She made it clear that the family would not remain silent if justice was delayed any further.
“We are giving the government 24 hours. If the accused are not arrested within this time, we will be forced to launch a protest,” she said, standing alongside family members and supporters.
The ultimatum has intensified pressure on the state administration, with the issue quickly gaining traction in political and public circles.
Daughter Questions Government’s Intent
Randhawa’s daughter also spoke out, questioning the perceived disparity in how the law is applied.
In a sharp remark directed at the authorities, she alleged that political influence was shielding the accused.
“Because he was a minister, he has not been arrested. If it had been a common man, the police would have taken action immediately,” she said.
Her statement reflects a growing sentiment among the family and supporters that the delay in arrests may be linked to the stature of those named in the case.
Allegations Of Pressure Before Death
According to the family, Gagandeep Randhawa had been under significant mental pressure in the days leading up to his death.
They allege that this pressure was linked to individuals named in the case, including former minister Laljit Bhullar.
The case has been registered under charges related to abetment to suicide, a serious offence that requires a thorough investigation into the circumstances leading to the incident.
Family members insist that all those named must be questioned and taken into custody to ensure a fair probe.
Viral CCTV Clip Adds New Dimension
Adding to the complexity of the case, a purported CCTV video showing Randhawa consuming poison has surfaced on social media.
While the authenticity and context of the video are yet to be officially confirmed, its circulation has intensified public interest and debate around the case.
Authorities have not issued a formal statement regarding the footage so far, and it is expected to form part of the ongoing investigation.
Delay In Post-Mortem Raises Questions
Another major point of concern for the family is the delay in conducting the post-mortem examination.
Even two days after the incident, the procedure had not been completed, further fuelling suspicion and anger among relatives.
The post-mortem report is considered a crucial piece of evidence, as it will help establish:
- The exact cause of death
- The nature and timing of the poisoning
- Any additional medical factors
The family has made it clear that they will not relent until both the post-mortem is conducted and arrests are made.

Growing Political Heat
The case has begun to take on political overtones, with opposition voices expected to raise the issue more aggressively in the coming days.
Allegations involving a former minister often trigger intense scrutiny, and the demand for accountability is likely to grow if the situation remains unresolved.
Legal experts note that in cases involving public officials, investigators are required to follow due process, but delays without clear explanation can lead to public mistrust.
What Happens Next?
With the 24-hour deadline now in place, the next steps taken by the Punjab Police and the state government will be closely watched.
Key developments to look out for include:
- Possible arrests of the accused
- Completion of the post-mortem examination
- Official response to the family’s allegations
- Clarification on the viral CCTV footage
If no action is taken within the stipulated time, the family has indicated that they will begin protests, which could escalate the situation further.
A Family’s Fight For Justice
At the heart of the controversy lies a grieving family seeking answers.
For them, the issue is not just about legal procedures but about accountability and justice for Gagandeep Randhawa.
As the clock ticks on their ultimatum, the case has become a test of the system’s ability to respond swiftly and fairly, regardless of the individuals involved.
