BJP national general secretary and MP Tarun Chugh went to Turbanjara village on Wednesday, met the family of the late Gulzar Singh and alleged that the death was a murder.
BJP national general secretary and Member of Parliament Tarun Chugh arrived in Turbanjara village on Wednesday to meet the relatives of Gulzar Singh, who was found dead in the area. During the meeting, Chugh expressed his belief that the incident was not a suicide but a homicide, describing it as an extreme act of injustice in Punjab.
The BJP leader’s visit underscores the party’s intent to scrutinise the circumstances surrounding the death, which has sparked local concern. He pledged to support the family in seeking a thorough investigation and urged law‑enforcement agencies to treat the case as a possible murder.
Local authorities have not yet released an official statement on the cause of death, and the investigation remains ongoing. The family, accompanied by Chugh, appealed for swift justice and for any perpetrators to be held accountable.
The incident adds to growing tensions in the region, with political figures increasingly involved in demanding accountability for violent deaths. The BJP’s involvement may influence the pace and direction of the inquiry.
Further updates are expected as police continue their probe into the circumstances of Gulzar Singh’s demise.
