Till two days back the general belief that Justice Gurnam Singh’s probe report was not tabled in the state assembly. It was revealed only on Wednesday (Feb. 13) that the report was tabled in the state assembly on March 5, 2001 when the Punjab Vidhan Sabha speaker told this fact to MLA H S Phoolka. Advocate H S Phoolka was demanding that the government should table the report into the House.

Responding to Speaker’s remarks H S Phoolka said that the law requires the government to table “Action Taken Report” along with the report of Commission appointed under “Commission of Inquiries Act”. He said that the SAD (B) had not tabled any ATR in this case therefore the tabling of the report in 2001 did not meet requirements of the law. He said the present government should table the Action Taken Report and take action as per the recommendations of the commission- whatever they were.
