"While Sukhbir Badal was making false promises of creating 1.5 lakh job opportunities at the "Make in Punjab" session with industrialists in Delhi on Thursday, his draconian government was pushing the ABP group to wind up its operations," he said.

"ABP Sanjha had been playing a very proactive role in unearth various scandals in the the SAD-BJP government," he claimed.
