<h1>Coordinated regulatory inspections, raids and licence cancellations targeting Punjab Kesari Group's hotels and printing presses-alleged press intimidation; enforcement to continue.</h1> Punjab Kesari Group alleges coordinated enforcement actions (inspections, raids, show-cause notices, licence cancellations, utility disconnection) directed at its hotels and printing presses with the extraneous purpose of intimidating the press, which, if upheld, would operate to disrupt or suspend the group's commercial and publishing operations. The Punjab government contends the same measures were statutory enforcement actions taken pursuant to documented regulatory violations (excise, GST, labour, factories, environment, FSSAI), with show-cause orders and reasoned findings supporting licence cancellation and other sanctions, and thus the operative effect is that enforcement proceedings will continue under statutory mandate and press freedom does not confer immunity from compliance.
