Faridkot/Chandigarh, May 19
Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann campaigned for Faridkot Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) candidate and famous Punjabi artist Karamjit Anmol. Mann led a massive roadshow with Karamjit Anmol in Jaito and Moga and appealed to the people of Faridkot to make his dearest friend win from this constituency.
Witnessing the enthusiasm of the people who joined the roadshow, Bhagwant Mann said that your love and support never lets me get tired. Taking a dig at other parties, he said that everyday you shower me with love and flowers, while after shaking hands with Akali Dal, BJP and Congress leaders, people count their fingers to ensure whether they have them all or not.
About his relationship with Karamjit Anmol, Mann said that Karamjit is my younger brother and childhood friend. We studied together. We grew in our artistic careers together. In the early days of our career, we both used to perform plays together in small schools, which gave us encouragement and also some money. He said that Karamjit has come from a very poor family and has reached heights with his hard work and dedication. Make him win, he understands your pain and will raise your problems in the Parliament.
Mann said that we do not ask for votes in the name of caste and religion. We are asking for votes in the name of the work done by our government in the last two years. We have given government jobs to 43000 youth in the last two years. Made electricity bills free for 90 percent of the houses. Opened 830 Mohalla clinics and built Schools of Eminence. At the same time, farmers were given sufficient electricity for farming during the day and canal water was supplied to 59% of the fields. This time too farmers will not need to buy diesel for generators.
He said that the people of Punjab are very impressed with the work of the AAP government. Wherever I go for campaigning, the public itself says that the work that was not done in 75 years, our government has done in just two years. That is why this time people have made up their mind to make the Aam Aadmi Party win by 13-0. Then together we will make Punjab ‘sone di chiri’ again.
He said that this much work has been possible in just two years because our intentions are clear. No one can accuse me of corruption of even a single rupee. I have not come into politics to earn money. I have left the path of earning money but I will not spare those who have looted Punjab’s money. He said that I do not want any share in your business, I just want to share the pain and suffering of three crore Punjabis.
Giving clarification on the door-to-door ration scheme of the Punjab government, he said that someone has spread a rumour that only flour will be available from the government. This is not so. This is absolutely wrong. People have both options. They can take flour or wheat, whichever they want.
Mann attacked Sukhbir Badal and said that he is a person who lives in AC. He comes out after asking the temperature. When the temperature outside is 30-32°, he takes out his Punjab Bachao Yatra for two hours. He has put a roof over his jeep. How will such people understand the pain and suffering of the common people!
He said that Sukhbir Badal’s only interest is in power and wealth accumulation. He said that Sukh Vilas Hotel was built with the blood of Punjabis. He looted Punjab and ruined our young generations and built Sukh Vilas in the mountains for himself. Mann said that every room in Sukh Vilas has a private pool. Mann said that he will free that land from the Badal family and convert it into a school. This will be the first school in the country with a pool in every class. Bhagwant Mann said that the people of Jaito must remember who had poisoned the well during the Jaito Morcha.
Bhagwant Mann also attacked Sukhpal Khaira. He said that Khaira says that people coming to Punjab from other states should be banned, but he does not know that Punjab is the land of Gurus and our Gurus have taught us to feed others. Even now Punjab feeds the whole country by growing wheat and rice. This time also Punjab will produce 130 lakh metric tons of wheat and 220 lakh metric tons of rice by the coming month of October. He said that Punjabis also go to other countries like Canada, America and England and are progressing there. Therefore Khaira should not have a narrow mindset.
I assure you just as Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann is serving Punjab, I will work for the people of Faridkot – Karamjit Anmol
Addressing the people, AAP candidate Karamjit Anmol thanked Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann and thousands of people who attended the road show and said that I assure you that just as Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann is working for the development of Punjab, I will work for the people of Faridkot in the same way. I will raise all the problems of this area in Parliament and solve them.
