The Chief Minister wanted to go to Paris to cheer the Indian hockey team and Speaker Sandhwan wanted to go to America to attend a political conference.
According to sources associated with the Ministry of External Affairs, the reason for not approving the visit of CM Bhagwant Mann is his security. As the Chief Minister, the Chief Minister has got Z Plus category security. In such a situation, due to late application, it is not possible to make adequate arrangements for their safety while traveling abroad. CM has to go to the field and watch the Olympic match. Where people from all over the world will come. In such a situation, there cannot be haste in security. Since the Chief Minister holds a diplomatic passport, he will have to seek permission from the Union Ministry of External Affairs. Apart from CM Bhagwant Mann, Punjab Assembly Speaker Kultar Singh Sandhwan has also not been allowed to go to America. He was going there to attend a conference. In this regard, Kultar Sandhwa confirmed that he has not been given approval. He also said that no reason has been given for not granting permission.
