Rohno Kalan (Ludhiana): Chief Minister Charanjit Singh Channi on Monday said that Aam Aadmi Party Chief Arvind Kejriwal should not take Punjabis for granted by building castles in the air and should understand that Punjabis are much more capable for leading their own state and need not an outsider like him. “Proud Punjabis would never let an outsider like Kejriwal to rule them,” he said.
CM Channi during his visit to village Rohno Kalan near Khanna inaugurated a sports park, a panchayat ghar and a park-cum-satth. He was also accompanied by Fatehgarh Sahib MP Dr Amar Singh, Payal MLA Lakhbir Singh Lakha, Zila Parishad chairman Yadwinder Singh Jandiali, besides several others.
While addressing the gathering, CM Channi said that his government is implementing the common man’s agenda in the larger interest of the state while people like Kejriwal are promising a moon to people in Punjab, rather than working for the betterment of ‘Aam Aadmi’ of Delhi.
He said that Kejriwal is best at rolling out bundles of lies before the people of Punjab. He said it was same Kejriwal who, before the 2017 Punjab Vidhan Sabha elections, had given a “guarantee” that he would throw Bikram Singh Majithia behind bars for his relations with the drug mafia.
“And when AAP failed to form government in Punjab, same Kejriwal offered unconditional apology to Majithia in the court, that too on AAP letterhead. Families who have lost their sons due to menace of drugs will never forgive Kejriwal,” he said while adding that his government has set the wheels in motion by not only booking Majithia but raids are also underway to arrest him.
He said that the “Chacha-Bhateeja” relationship between former CM Capt Amarinder Singh and Bikram Singh Majithia is now an open secret now as the former has been issuing statements in favour of the Akali leader.
