5 Star DGP of Punjab

Well it is whispered within the higher echelon of Punjab Police about the present DGP A A Siddiqui's penchant for Five star and other star rated hotels.Siddiqui, it is rumoured is quite appreciative of the luxurious treatment meted out to privileged clients in most of the five star hotels. Although, this stands to be a purely personal preference and one can't raise a finger at the worthy DGP of Punjab yet the following star rated hotels seem to be figuring as the personal favourites of Siddiqui:

1) Raddisson Jullundhur

2) Park Plaza , Ludhiana

3) Mohan International,

Amritsar and last but not the least , Hotel South End in Chandigarh.Not that anyone can raise any objections to this notion, but what really tickles the grey cells is that to what extent is it morally correct , if at all there is any iota of truth in it, for the worthy and dedicated IPS officer to be seen around in these luxurious places, which are undoubtedly the hubs for the rich and the affluential.
