AAP Hits Out At SAD-BJP Government For 'Ruining' Punjab

Darpan News Desk IANS, 25 Aug, 2016 12:44 PM
    The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) today hit out at the SAD-BJP combine government for "ruining" Punjab through "corruption and anti-people policies", saying it had made the lives of common people "miserable".
     
    Addressing a rally in Jagraon, Punjab's AAP campaign committee head and lawmaker Bhagwant Mann said the SAD-BJP government's "anti-people policies" had been "disastrous" for all stratas of society.
     
    "Each and every section of society is fed up from the SAD-BJP combine government which rendered the youth jobless and the poor people are facing a lot of hardships to feed their families," he said.
     
    "The life of people in the state has become miserable and farmers are being forced to commit suicides," he added.
     
     
    Mr Mann charged the current dispensation with "misleading the people" by "spreading false propaganda against the AAP leaders" on one pretext or the other.
     
    "The government is blatantly using government machinery to foil the political rallies of AAP," he claimed.
     
    Mr Mann dared Deputy Chief Minister Sukhbir Singh Badal to contest the next state election against him from Jalalabad, from where Mr Badal is a sitting legislator.
     
    Training his guns at the Congress, Mr Mann alleged the party was responsible for "committing huge scams" and said people will "never forgive them for that".
