“This is a testament to the party’s growing popularity and strong leadership that people in Punjab have started leaving AAP before 2027,” he said. The Haryana CM said that every problem would be solved once the BJP forms its government in Punjab in 2027.

“The development works will get on track and expedite in the state once BJP forms government in the state,” he said. Regarding the Congress, he said the party had “lost people’s faith” across the country.

Former Union minister Preneet Kaur, former Haryana assembly speaker Gian Chand Gupta, Mohali district BJP president Sanjeev Vasisht, party’s state secretary Mukesh Rana, Sushil Rana, Manpreet Sandhu and SMS Sandhu among others were present.
