“Our internal fights will only make him (Badal) happy,” he said, while speaking to party workers in his house at Jhande village located on the outskirts of Ludhiana. “Badal will distribute laddus if he gets to hear that the volunteers are not united’, he added.

Kejriwal’s message was aimed at keeping his party together in the wake of internal wrangling and a spate of allegations that has rocked the party, especially following the removal of the state convener Sucha Singh Chottepur.

“You people are fighting among yourselves. Wo zonal in-charge kyu lagaya ji; use ticket kyu din; use kyu nahi di? (Why has he been made the zonal in-charge; why has he been allotted the ticket). Ladai jhagde band karo. Badal bahut khush honge. Intelligence hai wahan ek ek message ja raha hai. (Stop internal fighting, Badal has his intelligence network here. He is getting a minute by minute account of what is happening here),” he said.

Kejriwal then went on to project the forthcoming assembly election as a golden opportunity for their party to work for the development of the state.

“Agar humne Punjab ki janata ko toda, joote maarenge sub. (We should not betray the trust of the people or else they won’t forgive us), he said.
