AAP making false allegations against Congress leaders to hide its failures, says party state chief Amarinder Singh Raja Warring
Punjab Congress president Amarinder Singh Raja Warring on Monday also held a review meeting with the district presidents and discussed plans to strengthen the party at the grassroots level ahead of the upcoming 2024 Lok Sabha elections.
Punjab Congress president Amarinder Singh Raja Warring on Monday accused the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) government of using diversionary tactics of making false allegations against the Congress leaders to hide its failures.
Calling it a ‘Fokki Mahshooriyan Wali Sarkar’ (Government of fake advertisements), Warring said the state government was busy squandering money from the state exchequer for self-promotion. “In the name of ‘badlaav’, they have cancelled lakhs of ration cards, increased VAT on petrol and diesel, increased power tariff, levied ₹200 development tax on pensioners, but remained silent on Lawrence Bishnoi’s interview from jail, drug menace, deteriorating law and order and other burning issues of the state,” he said at a press conference.
Warring said the Congress will start a ‘Pol Khol’ campaign in Punjab to expose the reality of Aam Aadmi Clinics and how the ruling government is playing with the lives of the people. “We will expose all their lies and they will have to face the consequences,” he said.
