RATHER THAN DISCLOSING INFORMATION ABOUT BOMBS BAJWA RUNNING AFTER LAWYERS FOR SAFE HAVEN
DESCRIBES SUKHBIR AS A REJECTED LEADER, CONGRESS AS A DIVIDED HOUSE
Chaajli (Sangrur), April 15-
Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Singh Mann on Tuesday said that it is shameful that Leader of Opposition Partap Singh Bajwa is dragging his feet to disclose the location of 50 bombs, which he claimed were smuggled into the state, and waiting for some untoward incident to take place for his vested political interests.
Addressing the gathering here today, the Chief Minister said that if Bajwa is having some tangible information on this issue then what is stopping him from disclosing it. He said that probably Bajwa is waiting for the bombs to explode so that he could play politics over the issue and mislead the people. Bhagwant Singh Mann said that the Congress leader has spread the baseless canard to create terror in the minds of peace loving people of the state.
The Chief Minister said that now when the state government has registered a case against Bajwa for misleading the people, the Congress leader is on his knees before the lawyers to save his skin. He said that a leader of this stature should not indulge in such cheap gimmicks to hoodwink the people by making such baseless claims. Bhagwant Singh Mann said that rather than making such irrational statements the opposition leaders must pursue value based politics.
The Chief Minister said that the traditional political parties are envious of him because they are not able to digest that the son of a common man is governing the state effectively. He said that the people of the state have lost their faith in the traditional political parties because of their anti-people and anti-Punjab stance. Bhagwant Singh Mann said that the wise and brave people of the state had ousted these parties during the 2022 assembly polls due to which they are frustrated now adding that the leaders of these parties are now ganging up with each other to mislead the people.
Training his guns at his predecessors, the Chief Minister said that these leaders had built huge palaces by amassing whopping wealth by misusing their official positions. He said that the walls of these palatial palaces were high and the gates usually remained closed for the people. Bhagwant Singh Mann said that these leaders remained inaccessible to the people due to which they were ousted by the masses.
The Chief Minister bemoaned that the state had lagged behind in the pace of development due to the apathetic attitude of the traditional political parties. He said that the leaders of these parties ruined the younger generations of the state by misusing their power. Bhagwant Singh Mann said that these leaders had never worried about the welfare of the people but they were focused on the prosperity of their own families.
Taking SAD Chief Sukhbir Singh Badal to cudgels, the Chief Minister said that he was a rejected leader, who was paying for his unpardonable sins. Bhagwant Singh Mann said that the Akali leader had befooled the masses during his long stint in power due to which he was ultimately shown the door by them. He also described the Congress party as a divided house whose leaders were busy in saving their own skin by targeting their party colleagues.
