Harbhajan Singh ETO Hits Back at Bikram Singh Majithia Over Son's PCS Mains Result (TIN)
Chandigarh: Punjab Cabinet Minister Harbhajan Singh ETO has challenged Shiromani Akali Dal (Badal) leader Bikram Singh Majithia to clarify his position regarding both possible outcomes of his son Harshjit Singh's Punjab Civil Services (PCS) Mains examination result.
The minister's response came after Majithia questioned him over the PCS recruitment process and sought clarification on whether his son had qualified for the Mains examination.
Responding to Majithia's post on social media platform X, Harbhajan Singh ETO said he was ready to provide clarification but wanted the Akali leader to answer two straightforward questions first.
The minister asked what Majithia would say if his son Harshjit Singh had cleared the PCS Mains examination. He also questioned what the Akali leader would say if his son's name did not appear on the list of successful candidates.
ETO said he was awaiting Majithia's response before addressing the questions raised against him.
Harbhajan Singh ETO thanked Majithia for seeking clarification over the PCS examination result and maintained that he would respond to the concerns.
However, he criticised the Akali leader for allegedly speculating about the examination outcome instead of considering both possibilities.
The minister insisted that Majithia should clearly explain his position regardless of whether Harshjit Singh qualifies or does not qualify for the PCS Mains examination.
The exchange has triggered a political confrontation between the AAP government and the Akali Dal leader over the PCS recruitment process.
While Majithia has raised questions about the minister's son's participation and qualification in the examination, Harbhajan Singh ETO has challenged him to clarify his reaction to both possible outcomes.
The issue has added another political flashpoint in Punjab, with the PCS Mains result becoming the centre of a public exchange between the two leaders.
