GURDASPUR, Punjab (June 22, 2015)—Convener of Aam Aadmi Party Punjab, Sucha Singh Chhotepur has stated that all the announcements made by BJP-Akali alliance on 350th foundation day celebrations of Sri Anandpur Sahib were totally “fake”. He alleged that the Akali leadership can never fight against the Drug menace in Punjab as most of its own leadership was heavily involved in the drug trade.
He added that the Central Government is allotting special packages to Himachal Pardesh and Jammu & Kashmir to promote industry, while Centre has completely ignored Punjab. He said that the rate of drug abuse and farmer suicides have been dramatically increased in the Akali regime.
Chhotepur said that Parkash Badal doesn’t care about Panth or Punjab, instead his interests are only limited unto his family. He added that Punjab had to face major loss with appointment of Harsimrat Badal as a Central Minister. “People of Punjab will reject Akali leadership in Assembly election of 2017,” he added. He said that masses of Punjab are keen to see Aam Admi Party ruling in Punjab.
