Lashing out at state Congress president Partap Singh Bajwa, Khanna asked him to explain what he did for the state's youths while he was a senior cabinet minister.

He alleged that the Congress-led government had put a total ban on government jobs in the state during its tenure and always tried to hamper the development projects being carried out by SAD-BJP.
