Congress activists today burnt effigies of Punjab Chief Minister Parkash Singh Badal and Deputy CM Sukhbir Singh Badal for allegedly throttling democracy by not allowing debate on no-confidence motion in state assembly.

Led by party's district chief Joginder Singh Mann, the slogan-shouting protesters staged demonstration against the "dictatorial" attitude of Punjab government and burnt the effigies.

Mann said Badals had admitted defeat even before the assembly polls by running from the debate on no-confidence motion brought forward by Congress against the state government.

"Totally disillusioned with the misrule of Badal government, peoples of Punjab have already made up their minds to show it the doors and instead enthrone Congress government in coming polls", he claimed.
