Chandigarh: Terming the Aam Aadmi Party government’s one-year regime in Punjab as a year of bad governance, Punjab’s leader of the Opposition (LoP), Partap Singh Bajwa on Thursday said that the under the one-year rule of AAP state had plunged into an economic mess. Apart from this the law and order situation in Punjab had collapsed completely.

Senior Congress Leader Bajwa said that the crime rate in the state had shot up ever since the AAP held the rein of the state’s governance. Punjab has become a gangland in real. Even today, the Chandigarh police have arrested members of some notorious gang, who had hatched a plot to execute a crime in Punjab.

“I need not repeat as the people of Punjab already know. Punjab failed miserably to maintain the law and order situation. Some of the gravest crimes that took place in the past year were including an RPG attack on the Intelligence Headquarters in Mohali, the Murder of Sidhu Moosewala, false claims by CM Bhagwant on Goldy Brar’s arrest, Nakodar cloth merchant Timmy Chawla’s killing, gangster Deepak Tinu escaped and Ajnala violence”, Bajwa added.

Bajwa said that the AAP government lied to the people of to garner the votes before elections in 2022. Various promises made by AAP seem to have gone in vain.

“The government must explain that what stopped it from providing Rs 1000 per month to women above the age of 18, which was the flagship programme of AAP. Despite hopeless efforts, the sand is still out of reach of the common people. Promises with farmers were not fulfilled. Moong dal was not purchased at the MSP. No cash incentive was given to farmers for stubble management. In spite of Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal’s tall claims, suicide among the farmers couldn’t get stopped”, Bajwa added.

The opposition leader said that the economists have already predicted that the debt in the state will touch Rs 3,12,758.24 crore by the end of this month and would further increase to Rs 3,47,542.39 crore by the end of the upcoming financial year 2023-24.

“The fiscal health of the state has suffered irreparable damages. However, the AAP has been squandering taxpayers’ money on false publicity with front-page advertisements”, Bajwa added.

He said that the smoothly functioning health system in Punjab was ruined to replicate faulty health in Delhi. Without hiring the manpower or uplifting the infrastructure, health centers, and dispensaries in Punjab were renamed after Aam Aadmi Party.
