It also observed the 25th anniversary of Operation Bluestar at the Golden Temple. Here are 10 landmark events from the state in 2009: 1. Sukhbir Singh Badal, the Akali Dal president, was made deputy chief minister of Punjab - the first case of a father-son in India's political history to be heading the government as number one and two. He had to resign in July as he failed to get elected to the assembly within six months. He was elected as legislator finally in August this year in a by-election from Jalalabad. He was then re-inducted as deputy chief minister. 2. The first batch of women soldiers recruited into the Border Security Force (BSF) were posted on the India-Pakistan border for the first time. 3. Despite not so favourable weather conditions this year, Punjab crossed a record 150 tonnes of paddy procurement in December. 4. Rockets were fired into Indian territory from the Pakistan side near the Attari-Wagah border checkpost on the international border twice in 2009. The incidents took place in July and September this year. About eight rockets landed on the Indian side near the border. The BSF suspected that Taliban terrorists could be behind the unprovoked attack but Pakistan Rangers completely denied that any rockets were fired. 5. The 25th anniversary of Operation Bluestar by the Indian Army on the holiest of Sikh shrines, Harmandar Sahib (popularly called Golden Temple), was observed with protests in June. 6. The ruling Akali Dal and opposition Congress legislators indulged in physical fights inside the Punjab assembly in December. The turbans of MLAs went flying as they punched and pushed each other. All this was done to have a debate on the deteriorating law and order situation in the state. 7. Punjab came to a standstill in May after followers of the Sachkhand sect of Sikhs went on a rampage in some districts of the state following an attack on their religious leaders inside a shrine in Austrian capital Vienna. The army was called in to stop the violence. 8. Migrants set several vehicles on fire in Punjab's industrial hub, Ludhiana, Dec 4. They were upset at being targeted by looters. This was followed by another round of violence when Sikhs protesting against the Nurmahalia sect were stopped by police and one person died in police firing. Curfew was imposed in Ludhiana for over two days. 9. Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper visited Harmandar Sahib on Nov 18. He paid obeisance at the famous Sikh shrine. 10. The ruling Akali Dal returned with only four of the 13 Lok Sabha seats in the May general elections. Chief Minister Parkash Singh Badal's daughter-in-law and Sukhbir Badal's wife, Harsimrat Kaur Badal, won the Bathinda Lok Sabha seat by a big margin. Navjot Sidhu (BJP) retains the Amritsar seat. Vinod Khanna (BJP) lost the Gurdaspur seat. 11. A blast in the army cantonment in Jalandhar left four soldiers dead Dec 1. The army instituted a probe. [/QUOTE]
