Exclusive: Read full interview of Arun jaitley to Rajat Sharma in Aap Ki Adalat (Part II)

RS: I want to raise a serious issue. Drug trafficking is a big issue in Amritsar and adjoining areas. Children of many families are involved in this and it has ruined many families. Many people

RS:
The other feedback that I received from people of Amritsar especially from rural areas is the goondaism of politicians. Those who are in power are involved in extortion.

AJ: In this country from centre to states, all police and investigative agencies should be released from political grip. Be it local police, CBI or ED. There should be only one commitment of these agencies- what is it that the law is saying?  When the influence of politicians increase in these agencies or when the bureaucratic control increases then it has its impact on their independence.

RS: Arun ji, people like Bikram Majithia handle your election campaign and say that I will twist the neck of Amarinder singh when he comes.

AJ: It's very unfortunate that in Punjab's politics, there is a big need to control the language being used and it should be done from all sides. You took one name but what kind of language is being used by the other side? People tell me why are you using such civilized language , why don't you respond in the same language? I am in parliament for so many years.  I had made a rule the first day that I will speak on issues and not on individuals. Nobody ever disturbed me in parliament. Even my Congress friends listen to me. But you can't blame any one side for commenting on individuals. Ask the other side as well.

RS: I will ask them when they come. But Prakash Singh Badal said that push Captain in such a manner that he reaches Pakistan. And then he says that his heart is in Pakistan.

AJ: Let me tell you one thing. A little of joke, sarcasm and light comments are permissible in politics. As far as sardar Prakash singh  Badal is concerned, I have seen very few politicians like him as far as  behavioral decency is concerned.  I ask my friends both from Congress and BJP to learn from him about how to work hard and how to deal with people with etiquette.  I have never seen him getting provoked and crossing the line.
