The SAD and the BJP Wednesday demanded that Punjab Minister Navjot Singh Sidhu, his wife Navjot Kaur Sidhu and the area councillor be booked in connection with the Amritsar train tragedy, which claimed nearly 60 lives. On Friday, the train mowed down the revellers who had spilled onto railway tracks while watching the burning of a Ravana effigy at 'Dhobi ghat' ground here near Joda Phatak.

Activists led by Akali leader Bikram Singh Majithia and BJP leader Tarun Chugh, along with families of some of the victims, reached Mohkampura police station here and demanded that an FIR be lodged in the case. However, station house officer Avtar Singh said action would be taken only after completion of investigation.
