Mr. Prakash Singh told local media in Chandigarh that officers who were derelict in performing the duty or showed soft corner for the agitators have been identified and their names have been mentioned in the report. Singh said that the panel also reported the names of those officers who acted responsibly during the Jat quota agitation.
Mr Singh said the committee visited 8 affected districts of the state, inspected the crime scene, gave patient hearing to the aggrieved and listened those who wanted to appear before the committee. He said that some people even handed over video footage of the incident of arson to the committee.
