It is learnt that the Jalandhar Rural police has reported that Bajwa used to be absent from accountability after expiry of his go away for 2 days and did not document on the police station.

Bajwa’s utterances before the media on Monday have also been discovered to be in violation of the professional habits as he commented in regards to the Congres candidate and even about his senior officials, including the SSP and the Jalandhar Zone IG.

It is learnt that the district police has also recorded its observations on his professional habits.
