Lashing out at Aam Aadmi Party convenor Arvind Kejriwal, Shah said,"Kejriwal has made Punjab the ATM for corruption. He even derives the money required to fight the case in court from Punjab. He uses the credit card with the name of Mann to contest elections."

"We have seen the stature of Punjab’s chief minister. But today the Punjab chief minister has turned into Kejriwal’s pilot carrying him to and fro. It is now getting difficult to distinguish between the Punjab chief minister and Kejriwal’s pilot,” he added.

“On the fourth of June, Modi Ji will be elected with 400 seats. On the 1st of June Kejriwal will go to jail and on the 6th of June Rahul Ji will go on foreign vacation,” the minister said.
