While addressing the audience at a function at Punjab Armed Police Complex, Charanjit Singh Channi said, “The criminals and the anti-social elements wet their pants when they see a Punjab Police officer.”
Navjot Singh Sidhu had made such a comment addressing a rally in Batala. Later, he had said that this comment need to be taken literally.
For this “wet pants” comment, Navjot Sidhu had to face backlash from the police department as well as the political leaders in his own party.
