“The Punjab Congress will not allow Kejriwal to enter Punjab if the AAP does not change its agenda,” Bittu said in a statement in Chandigarh
.
The Congress MP claimed that he would stop Kejriwal’s cavalcade from entering Punjab at the Shambhu barrier (at border with Haryana). “I will lead the protest along with 35,000 terrorism–affected families to stop him as the AAP is playing with the sentiments of Punjab’s people,” he said.
Bittu also sought AAP’s clarification on its funding in Punjab.
The Congress leader’s assertions came a day after the AAP leadership disowned a poster carrying the pictures of Sikh militant leader Jarnail Singh Bhindranwale and Kejriwal.
