Ex-Army chief Gen J J Singh on Sunday raised concerns about the meeting of British MP from Slough, Tanmanjeet Singh Dhesi, with Punjab chief minister Bhagwant Mann saying the MP is known for his anti-India stand, especially on Kashmir.

“It is known that Tanmanjeet Singh ‘Tan’ Dhesi, a British Labour Party politician (member of Parliament for Slough) has taken open anti-India stands, especially on Kashmir. Such a controversial MP was warmly received by Bhagwant Maan and MP Raghav Chadha,” JJ Singh said in a statement.

“Was it about the welfare of NRIs, unblacklisting some dubious individuals or was it about Kashmir?” he asked.

The former army chief demanded that AAP and Mann must disclose the details of the meeting. “Country should know the agenda of the meeting with a person, who has been vocal against India, he added. Dhesi had on Friday met with Mann at his official residence in Chandigarh.
