Pathankot attack: AAP activists hold candlelight vigil in Pb

Several activists of Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) today held a candlelight vigil across Punjab to pay homage to the security personnel who died in the terror attack at Pathankot Air Force base.
The activists held candles and banners in their hands and paid homage to the slain security personnel, a party spokesman said here.
In Ludhiana city, the vigil was held at Bharat Nagar Chowk in front of statue of Shaheed Major Bhupender Singh.
A large number of party volunteers joined the vigil at several places in the state, the spokesman said.
In Dakha and Jagraon, similar demonstrations were conducted at Dakha Chowk and Rani Jhansi Chowk respectively.

Speaking on this occasion, AAP's Ludhiana zone coordinator Col C M Lakhanpal (Retd) said we are indebted to those heroes who sacrificed their lives for the country.
At the same time, a free, fair and transparent probe needs to be conducted including the politician-police-drug peddlers nexus to know the root cause of security lapses, he said.
