Punjab to compensate Op Blue star detainees if Centre denies
The Punjab government will distribute the entire court-mandated compensation of â¹4.5 crore among 40 Operation Blue Star detainees if the Centre refuses to pay half the share, CM Captain Amarinder Singh has announced. The CBI had earlier appealed against a session court's order directing the Centre and state to compensate the petitioners over wrongful detention and torture in Jodhpur jail.
